McCain was on for the whole first segment on This Week. His interview with George went fairly well. I am not thrilled. John is no Mitt. The first if his two flubbs, imho, were his response to buying medicines from Canada. George S. even reminded him that George Will had said that importing medicines from Canada also imported their price controls. McCain's answer demonstrated his continued disintrest to economic issues. The second problem was his response to Hillary Clinton. He had said at one point that Hillary would make a good president. So George asked about that. McCain responded that you had to understand what he meant by "good" (ouch! do we have to review the definition of "is"): That she is a woman of integrity and that she would be a hard working, honest president. That there are policy differences, but that she would still be a good president. Hillary? Integrity? I am not one to list the litany of Hillary problems (at least not yet), but certainly one can speak well of a friend without hitting directly your opponents worse traits.
