No, not my book (one can dream though), but a new video by Brave New Films (full disclosure: I used to work there) that does in video form what I hope my book The Real McCain accomplishes in prose--laying bare the fallacy of the "straight-talk" label that has been attached to McCain like a Siamese Twin for the better part of a decade.
The video uses just some of the examples (if it used all, the video would be longer than The Godfather) of McCain's making statements about policy, politics and personal bravado that at best contradict each other and at worst simply don't comport with reality.
It is a must watch. And you can below:

Obvious duplicity from the double talk express. Don't underestimate the threat he poses. Since he is only self serving, he has no principles, no ethics, no morals. Nothing to hold him back.
Don't write him off. Understand the threat he poses. Act as if he has a lock on the White House that needs to be removed. Act as if he is 40 points ahead of Obama and this needs to be reversed. There needs to be multifaceted unrelenting exposure of the McManchurian candidate.
Press support and media coverage for Ron Paul and Bob Barr to cut into the McCain base and switch vote. Press for exposure of all the schemes of the neocons to invade our lives. Continue to expose the double talk. Press for conservative news persons like Michelle Maulkin to have access so that she can show is duplicity to conservatives.
You need to confront McCain on all fronts.
It must be viral, because I've seen it everywhere I look lately.
Damn! Talk about flip-flopping and waffling!
I watched this one. The Republicans should just quit now. Can you imagine the 527 ads on this guy? Brutal.
Does he know he is doing this or is he just that far gone?
I hope this video does go viral.
This video is not very well produced. It's really soft on the set-up about why we should care that McCain is doublespeaking every other interview and fails to deliver even a pinch of wit. You want me to forward this to my busy buddies then you'll need to produce a better video. The Daily Show has delivered all this information before, and done a better job of it.
This is a good one!
