VDH on McCain's chances

Victor Davis Hanson, or VDH as he is know on National Review's Corner, has some intelligent things to say about McCain and his chances among conservative Republican voters in a little essay called 'McCain Agonistes' (the guy is a scholar of the classics after all). Basically he thinks that McCain is the best hope for defeating the Clintons. He doesn't even mention Obama.

I especially like his conclusion if conservatives don't make their peace with McCain and support him:

Otherwise, we are about 1/3 the way through a Greek tragedy, in which the fated catastrophic denouement is known, but can't be prevented.
