Looks like Weigel just threw him a few links to his blog, and gave him an opportunity to repeat his excuses. Did Weigel let him off the hook in that interview? Charles sure had a lot of follow-up questions.

Not in my opinion. If you compare Weigel’s coverage of NY-23 to well, anything that McCain has ever written, it’s very clear that they’re coming from opposite ends of the political spectrum.

I may be biased though, as I’m a big fan of Weigel’s and he was, as far as I know, the first person on the left to give Charles credit for calling out the right-wing blogosphere’s association with V-B and other fascists. Check this article out.

I’ve always thought of him as being friendly to Charles, and maintaining a working connection with McCain for purposes of exposing the wingnuts. YMMV.
