Another McCain bombshell/Hail Mary?
Thursday, September 25, 2008 by Dave Winer.
Taegan Goddard just posted a piece at CQ suggesting that McCain may be preparing to join Republicans in voting against the bailout. If so, he's basically saying "No way am I going down for this, Bush, it's your problem, you take the fall." 
An interesting discussion followed my post yesterday outlining four possible scenarios for the bailout negotiations in DC. The whole thing is playing out now in DC.
We're moving toward options 3 or 4.
I don't think it's #1. It could be #4. I kind of hope it's #3.
