Has anyone noticed? McCain is making Obama's case for him
McCain is making Obama's case now.

McCain is now trying to convince voters that we need more regulation and we need to "go after" high executive pay. If McCain is successful with those arguments, he will actually talk his own supporters into voting for Obama. When voters want a Democrat, they want a REAL Democrat. When voters start agreeing with Democratic arguments, they vote for the Democrats.

Same thing holds true for Dems who try to move to the right to follow voters. It doesn't work. When voters start agreeing with Republican arguments, they vote for a Republican, not a Democrat.

3. The case could be made that McCain's closer numbers were the result of
him co-opting Obama's message ...
