Digby: Fortunate Flyboy

Atrios calls this a Rovian ratfuck and says that McCain should be thrilled about this and he's right:

Is John McCain a lesbian? Maybe we'll learn the answer from Edward Klein, who insinuated as much about Hillary Clinton in his 2005 biography -- largely a clip-job of hit pieces, reviewers said -- and is apparently hard at work on a poison-pen book about the Arizona senator. According to Crain's New York Business, Klein claims he'll chronicle the Republican presidential front-runner's "sexual infidelity, chronic gambling and anger management." I can hardly wait.

Atrios rightly claims that this is innoculation. To me it says Rove is working to get McCain elected.
