George Burns used to say, “Acting is all about honesty. If you can fake that, you’ve got it made.” Looks as if John McCain has the same idea about authenticity and politics.

I would change one line of that article - McCain’s establishment of the ’straight talk’ brand with the voters is secondary. As long as he has it well established with the media, he’s golden. And I don’t mean that the reporters and editors believe it; just that they feel it is the conventional wisdom to which they must bow.
