As K noted, Fund told me on my show tonight what David reports here. But there are all kinds of things going on, with calls to citizens at the last minute making sleazy charges, the Romney-should-apologize-to-our-troops for something he never said, and calls that are being made to certain media outlets complaining about hosts. In 2000, McCain played the victim, and he appears to be preparing to do the same should he lose the Florida primary. I am not a journalist, so I don’t know what is or is not the usual practice. But the idea that McCain hasn’t had an opportunity to respond to the Fund piece is simply false. On my own show I said he denied what Fund reported and I read part of what Byron reported on the Corner. McCain is a tough guy. He needs to stop the whining.
