You can't hide your lyin' eyes
And your smile is a thin disguise

Lindsay Graham

It's a good job McCain came back to Washington when he did - after all, the bailout is serious business, and it required a man of McCain's brains and cool temperament to navigate the minefield of negotiations. So as soon as the debate was over, McCain rushed back to Washington to "help out," and according to his BFF Sen. Lindsay Graham on Fox News Sunday:

GRAHAM: John didn't phone this one in. ... You can't phone something like this in. Thank God John came back.

Yes, praise Jesus.

Mr. McCain, who arrived home at 4 a.m. Saturday from the presidential debate in Oxford, Miss, could be seen in his car talking on his cell phone. But there was no word from his campaign on who he was talking to, or the extent of his involvement in ongoing negotiations.

By mid-afternoon, Mr. McCain's closest adviser, Mark Salter, told reporters that Mr. McCain would not go to Capitol Hill on Saturday but would make phone calls to try to push the deal along.

Um, isn't that the definition of phoning it in?
