    The whole point is...

    to so muddy the waters about who is a reformer so that Obama's advantage is obscured. A responsible press would decry this. Tom Schaller, by suggesting that McCain is speaking Naderesque rhetoric, JUST LIKE OBAMA, without hammering him for doing so, is simply being another echo-chamber. Schaller, you need to point out, each and every time, what the underlying lie is.
