    ...the maverick/jackass balance has been tipped, at least temporarily.

Let's hope it stays that way. What's been lost in the news cycle of the last couple days is that his only response to Bloomberg's shredding is saying that Mike's a lousy golfer. That's our presidential nominee. All insult, no policy. I think the scale has tipped to the point where he must be hurting GOP senators' reelection bids. Obviously they have the internal polling that says otherwise, but I can't imagine that will stay true forever. McCain's granddaughter broke with the party. She's not exactly an insider, but that's getting closer. At least one Congressman, albeit a retiring one, tore him apart and admitted he's voting Clinton.

I'm really looking forward to Hillary shredding him in a debate (that he tried to get out of by saying that they scheduled them against the NFL; can you imagine a president no showing to an emergency National Security Council meeting because Monday Night Football is almost on?).
