Groping toward the truth but still utterly delusional. MSNBC’s Chris Matthews has been doing a pretty decent job being candid and straight-up about the sleazy campaign the McCain camp is running. But he still thinks ‘the McCain camp’ is doing this behind McCain’s back since he’s too honorable and straight-talking to stand for this kind of sleaze.

Matthews: “I do have a tremendous amount of faith in John McCain’s integrity. He used to be on the show all the time … I don’t believe he’d sit where you’re sitting and call his opponent or say his opponent called his running mate a pig. I don’t believe he’d say that. So i wonder why his people agreed to do that … This is a claim I don’t think the candidate himself would make.”

Joe, you’ve seen the light on this guy, right?
