Shooting fish in a barrel

This is too easy to pass up. On the heels of John McCain's wonderfully insightful explanation about how we're going to get out of a recession, he comes up with this gem on today's morning shows:

Mr. McCain said, “I would imagine that technically there’s some question amongst economists about that. The fact is Americans are hurting, they’re hurting badly.”

It's good that he can imagine that we might be in a recession, but does he know? I'd bet a lot of money that he doesn't have a flippin' clue.
