USA Today has some fun with the lede of their McCain story:
COLUMBIA, S.C. — No longer burdened by lots of campaign cash and staff, Sen. John McCain is stumping for votes the old-fashioned way, trying to remind voters of the maverick personality that won him fans in the 2000 presidential race.
Either they're being mean, or they've bought the McCain campaign's "now-McCain-can-be-McCain" spin hook, line, and sinker.
Of course, how can you ever be a credible "maverick," when your "maverick" pose is just a fall-back after you've attempted "heir to Bush" and "inevitable frontrunner"?
