Did you ever talk smack about someone/ do something mean to someone, only to have them find out? Ever had the unfortunate fun of seeing them again, with both of you knowing what you said/ did? I think the most marked characteristic of the guilty party is always the INABILITY to look them in the face. I think McCain knows full well how far over the line his campaign has gone....and he feels stupid. Not stupid enough to stop, however, based on the ads I've seen over the past 2 days... I interpret it as a sign of guilt.

He was doing what courteous, mature adults do, even when they don't like each other. McCain, obviously is neither courteous nor mature, and that's putting it nicely.
