For those who keep up with the Obama campaign talking points, one of the oft-repeated ones is that McCain has stated in the past that our economy is still "fundamentally strong." When I hear them say that, I usually conclude that -- though accurate -- they probably pulled that quote from six months ago, or a year.

But today, Black Monday, the day that the country's financial system is apparently about to go belly-up (quick! Turn on CNN before Time Warner goes bankrupt and we lose that, too), McCain continues to repeat that line. Today! The video above is from today! At 9:35 EST. Today!

Sometimes, I think if I blink hard enough, this entire campaign will reveal itself as one grand illusion.
