The Perils of Being a Frontrunner

McCain's forces say they are preparing for all challengers. But what will it cost him? That's a question that McCain himself has struggled with. There was a time just a few years back when he would tell people he didn't think he wanted to run for President again. Not because he was getting too old. And not because he didn't think he could win. McCain thought it just couldn't possibly be as much fun as it was the first time around. He would say wistfully, "You can't bottle lightning." But while he may be in a better position to win now, he'll still need some of that old electrical charge to do it.
