My oh my, how quickly things can change. From the handwringing of yesterday to the buttkicking of today. It started with the news that he couldn't keep track of how many homes he owns:
The Obama campaign put out a smashmouth ad (update: as ItsKevin comments, the ad now has 290K+ views after being on the intertube for just 7 hours -- that's MEGAVIRAL):

So John McCain decided he'd make the election about judgment. But the problem is that his judgment is really bad. Here he is in 2001 saying that he'd have picked Cheney to be VP and Rumsfeld to SecDef and that together they formed the "strongest" national security team ever.
As if all that wasn't bad enough, CNN became the first MSM outlet to go into depth on John McCain's extramarital affairs:
And they also looked into his dealings on the Keating Five (this video is now fixed, it wasn't working when I first posted):
The worst thing of all for John McCain? The DNC starts on Monday. Kapow!
