And I'm not talking about hurricanes here.
For the current president of the United States the beginning of the end of his popularity, and the media's love for him, started when hurricane Katrina took out an American city. After years of positive treatment, and numerous benefits of the doubt, the lens through which he was seen was forever skewed to the negative. John McCain's pick of Sarah Palin is his own Katrina moment.
From Campbell Brown's devastating interview with Tucker Bounds to Obama's surge in the polls, the turn against McCain's maverick bull is palpable. The gap between McCain's carefully crafted spin and reality is now too big to bridge. John McCain has a judgment problem, as he always has, and now it's been exposed to the world.
Hell, even Richard Cohen has jumped off the straight talk express. What more proof is needed?
