There's a tendency in the media to play up divisions within a
campaign, so such stories should always been taken with a grain of
salt. But there have been a spate of articles about differences of
opinion among McCainiacs on foreign policy, economic policy, and even campaign strategy. I happen to think the
New York Times grossly exaggerates the foreign policy
differences but an economic team including tax-cut-and-spend Jack
Kemp and tax-and-don't-spend Pete Peterson does seem incoherent.
But it will be interesting to see how the McCain camp's internal
contradictions play out.
