What a month it’s been for good old John McCain. If you’re like me, you have been following his rather dramatic fall from grace and man has it been a wild ride for the former maverick Senator.

Well, I was out at lunch today and it dawned on me – yes, McCain appears to be down and out, but remember, the media, along with primary activists love a good comeback story.

You may be asking yourself, why did this hit me at lunch?

I was at the food court grabbing a quick bite and you know the food court scene – there are so many choices and plenty of samples being handed out. Then I got to thinking, wow, this is kind of like the presidential campaign. Here I was – contemplating sushi, Greek, Chinese, and Indian – taking little bites of each to decide if I was ready to choose something a little different, something off the beaten path…but no, in the end, I went with my original choice, the “safe” choice – a hearty burrito.

John McCain could be like that burrito. Iowa and New Hampshire voters are perusing the food court and they are tasting samples, but in the end, they might return right back where they started, for some comfort food. That comfort food – John McCain.

I guess only time will tell. (Oh, and by the way, the burrito was really disappointing)
