This is one of those nights when ot becomes clear Fox News lives in a different reality that actual journalists.
Monica Crowley predicted on O'Reilley that "close to the midnight hour" McCain will seal a deal, proclaim victory, fly down to Miss and stride the tarmac, sweep into the debate "trenchcoat flapping" and say he saved the country from economic disaster.
And her partner blonde in a segment called Culture Warriors chimes in an echos McCain will then shift the topic to foreign policy and "kick his butt on that, too."
I'd link to the video but it would probably make a dime for Fox.
Let's see. McCain drops in to the capitol to blow apart negotiations between a Republican president and Senate leaders from both parties, and two men who know something about economics, Bernanke and Paulson.
Floats a half-baked plan to fix the mortgage mess with a capital gains tax cut.
And Fox rises from the near-universal recognition of this mess to declare a victory for Fox.
Let's see, it's 10:40 Washington time, we'll know in 80 minutes if they were full of it. Anyone want to place a wager?
