In recent years Letterman started getting more political -- edging into what Ken Tucker's 1999 biopiece in Salon called "comedic guerrilla warfare." In turn, politicians and candidates started looking at talk-show gigs -- especially the "Late Show" -- as convenient stops on the campaign trail. Evidently they weren't paying attention to how dangerous Letterman was getting.

Especially McCain, when he booked with the "Late Show" for the other night, only to cancel on the excuse that he was "racing to the airport," heading for Washington so he could help save the economy.
