World-News

Michael Isikoff and Holly Bailey, Newsweek: "Few advisers in John McCain's inner circle inspire more loyalty from him than campaign manager Rick Davis. McCain and his wife, Cindy, credit the shrewd, and sometimes volatile, Republican insider with rescuing the campaign last year when it was out of money and on the verge of collapse. As a result, McCain has always defended him - even when faced with tough questions about the foreign lobbying clients of Davis's high-powered consulting firm. 'Rick is a friend, and I trust him,' McCain told NEWSWEEK last year."

McCain's Suspension Bridge to Nowhere

Frank Rich, The New York Times: "What we learned last week is that the man who always puts his 'country first' will take the country down with him if that's what it takes to get to the White House. For all the focus on Friday night's deadlocked debate, it still can't obscure what preceded it: When John McCain gratuitously parachuted into Washington on Thursday, he didn't care if his grandstanding might precipitate an even deeper economic collapse. All he cared about was whether he might save his campaign."
