ZING-ER-OOO! Obama camp taunts: 'Unsteady...erratic' McCain 'desperately needs' debate win
Obama camp taunts: 'Unsteady...erratic' McCain 'desperately needs' debate win

Obama spokesman Bill Burton just put out the traditional pre-debate memo touting McCain's strengths and downplaying expectations for his own candidate -- and openly mocked McCain's performance this week. The memo is the most direct questioning yet from Obama's campaign of McCain's temperament, and his fitness to lead.

Burton writes:

On the economy, McCain’s words and actions over the course of the past week have illuminated his lack of expertise. He admitted he does not understand the economy -- his erratic, out-of-touch behavior this week, his failure to do anything of substance to move the agreement forward on the bailout, and his commitment to continuing Bush economic policies, demonstrate it. But there are some questions we might see answered tonight after McCain’s misadventure to Washington and the phony ‘suspension’ of his campaign. For example, will McCain finally say where he stands on the unworkable and counterproductive House Republican plan? Will he be willing to buck his own party?
