Partisanship derails thinking, but if you put it aside, there's an irony here. Schmidt's real calling was the insurgency campaign of McCain's straight talk express in 2000. Would McCain have spared us the Iraq debacle? I'd say probably not, since even then McCain was a bomb with a hair trigger. But, he's actually complaining about an insurgency in the gop. McCain ran on the premise that bushii was lying about his economic programs ... well, he was. And the tea party is a large response to that within the gop.
