spoiler alert

The Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza notes that an ad proclaiming “McCain wins debate!” was already running on the Wall Street Journal’s Web site Friday morning. (A screen shot of the page can be seen here.) The reader who tipped Cillizza also saw a second ad that contained a quote from McCain campaign manager Rick Davis: “McCain won the debate — hands down.”

    Just one note - as much as I hope this is true, so far the only thing that has been linked by the major news networks is the same screenshot. Unless there’s a hard link to the image URL hosted on WSJ’s site, this can’t be 100% verified.

    That said, I wouldn’t put it past the McCain campaign at this point.

    sure, sure…but first, who do you credit for the bailout?
