SPEAKER: We're going to look at McCain's troubles from three areas of analysis.

First one, being that he is losing his reputation as the Straight Talk Express. That's always been very essential to his credibility, and that's something that's going to hurt him in the long run. Second, we're going to review some of his unpopular stances on very pressing issues right now, then there's the war in Iraq, taxes, and health care. Then finally, we're going to look at just how his status as a Republican is going to hurt him before the race even begins.
