It just seems like the Republicans are setting themselves up on this one...

Agreed, but McCain's campaign doesn't seem to have a strategy laid out for more than 3 days. So I don't think it's a surprise. Romney and McCain really butted head on some stuff during the debates.

Example 1 from June 15th South Carolina debate via New York Times:
This week their arguments over immigration prompted Mr. McCain to suggest acidly that Mr. Romney’s solution might be “to get out his small-varmint gun and drive those Guatemalans off his lawn.”

McCain also made it a habit to try to portray Romney as a flip-flopper and of wanting to set a time-table for withdrawal from Iraq.
