Swingin’ for the fences

John McCain trails Barack Obama in the national polls, but you could argue he’s got some momentum heading toward the finish line next week. McCain seems more energized than he has been, sharpening his rhetoric against Obama and delivering some pretty good lines in the process. Gigging the Democrat for a paid bloc of network time Wednesday night, McCain called Obama’s national address an “infomercial” — and quickly added no speech of his would ever get in the way of the World Series. Now there’s a campaign promise with some meat on it.
