Will McCain “pull a Coleman”?

The last stunt, Mickey Kaus at Slate writes, is “always to drop all the stunts.” And he wonders if that’s what Sen. John McCain will do next week — “dramatically drop the attacks and make a direct, affirmative case for his presidency.” He adds as a P.S.: “Republican incumbent Norm Coleman pulled this very stunt in Minnesota. Is it working for him? Quinnipiac has him only 2 points down.” (A new Minnesota Poll shows Democrat Al Franken up by three in the race, 39 to 36 percent.)
