John McCain said something very odd yesterday, that has been slightly overlooked amongst the Obamania. He appeared to endorse Obama's timetable for withdrawing troops from Iraq. This, after bashing Obama over the head for even having a timetable, and trying to make their difference on Iraq the central issue of the campaign, is pretty extraordinary. It's not quite clear if it was accidental, or if the McCain campaign has taken a decision in the wake of Maliki's intervention to go with the flow. Either way, it's very good news for Obama.
