That is partially how I view things.
1) His choice of Palin will go down as one of the worst vp choices in a long time.
2) He gave a speech stating quite emphatically that the "fundamentals of the economy are strong" and two hours later delivered another speech and basically said "omfg just kidding before, we're in deep shit, i need to suspend my campaign and fly to washington, lol
."
3) If he voted against the bailout... er um... rescue package... he would have done a large part to get the middle of the country, where most of the population resides and would have helped him bolster his former "maverick" image.
