McCain Team Blows Photo-Op

I'm not sure who organized the staging last night, but they should be fired.  To McCain's right is establishment liberal U.S. Senator John Warner.  Right beind McCain is establishment liberal Congressman Tom Davis, and his wife, liberal state senator Jeannemarie Devolites Davis, who just lost her race in November.  In the back, to McCain's left, is former Senator George Allen (at least, he's there). 



If McCain wanted to have establishement folks behind him, he might have chosen to have a few more conservatives in the picture (or, at least, people conservatives don't loathe). 

But an even smarter idea -- if he wants to preserve his "maverick" status -- might have been to have some excited young people behind him!!!
