John McCain really ought to worry when the WSJ and the WashPost edit boards both agree that he is wrong. From the WashPost editorial today: "Mr. McCain's call for the head of Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox was precipitous and unwarranted." Meanwhile, without reference to Cox or McCain, Post financial writer has some great advice in general that President Bush ought to have taken long ago and that McCain should take now with regard to Cox/Cuomo: Apologize. Admit error. The American people hunger for a leader who can admit error and show that he can learn from it and correct it.
