McCain, fundraising in the Hamptons while O's in Afghanistan, says he's surprised he's doing as well

as he is in the polls.

LOL. Well, at least he's honest about that -- he should be surprised.

He also said that Obama has run an "incredibly admirable campaign."

Anyway, he was fundraising yesterday, will attend a baseball game (with Rudy Giuliani) today -- all the while Obama is meeting with our troops and generals.

It would be nice to have photos of McCain's fundraisers to contrast with the photos of Obama in Afghanistan.
