Matthews did not challenge Madden's claim that McCain "trying to hug" Clinton voters given McCain's recent comments about her

SUMMARY: On Hardball, after former Mitt Romney spokesman Kevin Madden claimed that Sen. John McCain, "whether he's talking about health care or ... he's talking about what he really likes about Hillary Clinton, how he's worked well with her -- he's trying to hug those voters because he believes that his calculus for victory is right in the middle. It's not playing to the -- to the left," Chris Matthews did not note that McCain has derided Sen. Barack Obama's health care plan as "HillaryCare."
