I think the biggest issue for McCain, preventing a substantial comeback at this point, is that he supported the bailout. He lost his ability to make the case that the American people will need to fix the economic problems(as we always have), prosecute those who abused the system, pass legislation to ensure we do not allow this level of abuse again, and that Obama and the Dems want to continue the bad policies and fundamentally flawed ideology that brought us here(i.e. home ownership, health care, new cars, etc. are all "entitlements" that everybody should have, regardless of whether your contribution to society warrants it).

I think he's painted himself in the same corner that Hillary did...there are just not enough differentiators on the issues that are most relevant to people (at the moment). So it comes down to the ability to articulate and demonstrate composure...2 things Obama does much better than McCain.
