John McCain's Days of Thunder

Is McCain peaking too early?
Is it possible for McCain to peak? It may be that McCain is Cole Trickle, bred for racing and winning, but finding ways to lose because he doesn't understand the vocabulary of the race.

Or maybe the Obama is peaking with shallowness and lies, ergo he is losing ground. Even with his pit crew, the media.

Down the stretch McCain will keep on keeping on, allowing the Obama to wow the press, while always gaining ground until the pass into first.

Harry: You're going to burn the tires. -
Cole: Everybody else slowed down.
Buck: He's right. Check his lap times. Everybody else has fallen off.

Even with the press lying about Obama's lies, how will Obama win if the public, already in July, is beginning to believe Obama to be less than truthful?

McCain's boringness may well be what puts him over the finish line in first as he honestly and calmly lays out his positions to a yawning press, but a voting public that defied the printed wisdom and voted for Bush when they sensed that Gore and then Kerry were iffy putzes.

Cole: You didn't know how this was going to turn out.
Harry: It's like you said: There's nothing you can't do in a race car.
Cole: We won.
Harry: Yeah.
Cole: Can you walk, or am I going to have to carry you?
Harry: Where to?
Cole: Victory Lane.
Harry: Oh yeah.
Harry: Walk? Hell... I'll race your ass!

Oh, the Obama is a perfect Russ Wheeler as an arrogant puff who looks good, but just doesn't have what it takes.
