As to the transcript of the Rose / Brokaw interview, Jason is completely correct - the actual interview is much different.

It's unbelievable to me how childish the GOP side got this fall.

You know, conservatives could have begun a very serious discussion about national security, after McCain had maybe chosen Kay Bailey Hutchison two months ago, and completely attempted to neutralize Obama/Biden.

From an acting perspective, I look at things like a law student at times, trying to get into the head of people with opposing views. How would I have represented McCain if I were leading his campaign. With an "Experience First" message carrying through the entire summer and sticking with folks, it's simply stunning how childish and absurd the McCain campaign got.

Yes, both sides engage in shenanigans. But the McCain campaigns mistakes were the sort that you'd expect from the less experienced of the two candidates.
