U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan said that if he were running, "I would have done things differently the last few weeks."

Ryan said that McCain's campaign has been knocked off stride as his Democrat rival Barack Obama has drastically outspent it. Ryan said that has allowed the Democrats to better define the issues.

Ryan said that McCain's plans for health care and the economy should have been more vigorously defended against Obama's criticism.

Ryan was mentioned earlier this year as a potential running mate for McCain and the Arizona senator has called Ryan one of the future leaders of the Republican Party.

In a string of recent polls in Wisconsin, Obama was showing a double-digit lead over McCain.

The paper also said that Obama has a strong mind and he's remained steady in the face of challenges from McCain and Hillary Rodham Clinton.

While the paper said that McCain has an amazing life story and would be a capable and effective president, it said his campaign has adopted the policies, tactics and agenda of recent Republican leaders.
