I'll be very curious to watch McCain over the Palin bubble....

Despite everything he says about himself, John McCain has a pretty big sense of self importance. I'm wondering this morning how he's feeling about the joint appearances when Sarah Palin is getting all the shouts and applause.

It may be fun for the first few days, but as it continues, and stories like this are written, "McCain-Palin becoming Palin-McCain?," I'll bet he's privately starting to grate.

He's not known as a patient man.
