Going Right for Rudy   [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

I just read that passage about the emergency personnel in McCain's speech today — I'm surprised he went right for Rudy in his official announcement. But, of course, I'm not surprised he'd want to get Rudy out of the way — and making his 9/11 image less untouchable by hitting it from the get-go is one way to start working on that.

It seems to me McCain must privately welcome his old friend Fred Thompson's entrance into the race because I think Rudy is the first to be deflated by a new celeb's presence.
