McCain and the Boys on the Bus

A Washington Post column gives some idea of why John McCain is so popular with the press.

While we need to remember that the press has their own agenda, it is also true that they get to see the candidates much more closely than the rest of us do. Their judgement may on this be worth something. Especially since McCain is not congenial to them in policy terms.

I get the feeling John McCain would be a lot of fun to have a beer with.
