Obama made the gesture last night of crossing the aisle to say hello to his opponent:

He [Obama] walked over to where McCain was chatting with Republican Sen. Mel Martinez of Florida and Independent Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman of Connecticut. And he stretched out his arm and offered his hand to McCain.

McCain shook it, but with a “go away” look that no one could miss. He tried his best not to even look at Obama.

Finally, with a tight smile, McCain managed a greeting: “Good to see you.”

We are seeing the meltdown of McCain in real time, and its not pretty. If being down in the polls is causing this, can you imagine what he will be like on election night as the results come rolling in? I almost feel sorry for his campaign at this point.
