What's this?

It seems that the NYT editorial board is waking up from its 8 year immitation of Rip Van Winkle and doesn't like what it sees:

This nation has suffered through eight years of an ill-prepared and unblinkingly obstinate president. One who didn’t pause to think before he started a disastrous war of choice in Iraq. One who blithely looked the other way as the Taliban and Al Qaeda regrouped in Afghanistan. One who obstinately cut taxes and undercut all efforts at regulation, unleashing today’s profound economic crisis.

In a dangerous world, Americans need a president who knows that real strength requires serious thought and preparation.

In fact, taking the whole of news coverage and opinion, it seems - at least to this reader - as if the McCain campaign may indeed have finally jumped the shark.

One can only hope it's not too late.

In any event - more, please!
