George Will hedging his bets by criticizing McCain

George Will writes an auspicious article in the Washington Post about John McCain.

Will points out McCain's hyposrisy on the Gitmo stuff.

What makes this auspicious for me is that Will rarely, if ever, endorses a candidate. He does hammer less on those he is more aligned with.

The fact that he's coming out early in opposition (if it can be called that) to McCain, tells me that Will sees the writing on the wall, viz., Obama will win.

Will is one of those intellectuals who doesn't like to show his cards, even though everyone knows where he stands. It's a grand dance he performs.

He's only hedging his bets with this article to maintain some semblance of gravitas for the coming change.
