Interesting. McCain has promised to bring "every pressure to bear" to stop that anti-Obama ad from running next week in NC, and word was earlier that he had succeeded. Apparently that word was wrong.
I have to admit, Linda Daves, chairwoman of the North Carolina Republican Party, sounds convincing in that interview, but I still don't buy it. It's just too convenient for McCain. He gets to take the high road and the low road simultaneously. If he's serious about this, he's going to need to do more than just send an email and ask his surrogates to make some phone calls. He's going to need to do much more.
UPDATE: Josh Marshall:
If John McCain can't stand up to the North Carolina GOP swift-boat freaks, how can he stand up to al Qaeda?
UPDATE II: Only they can't find a TV station that will air it. Still not buying it...
