McCain Wins Debate! Prematurely!

In case you ever wondered if it was possible for a candidate to do SO poorly that even their own campaign would admit that they didn't win it, I submit to you exhibit A.

This article from the Washington Post's "The Fix" column, which notes that the McCain campaign already has banner ads up proclaiming him the winner... and the first debate is not even scheduled until tonight (and we only just learned moments ago that McCain would even be attending, after his theatrics of the last couple of days).

Click through, check it out. They've got screen captures of the Wall Street Journal and the "McCain Wins Debate! (paid for by McCain-Palin 2008)" banner ad.
