Disarray in McCain camp

If this guy can't run his campaign, how can he possibly expect to run the government?

John McCain's presidential campaign is in a troubled stretch even before his formal nomination, hindered by resignations of staff members, a lagging effort to build a national campaign organization and questions over whether he has taken full advantage of Democratic turmoil to present a case for his candidacy, some Republicans say.

In interviews, some party leaders said they were worried about signs of disorder in his campaign and about whether the focus in the last several weeks on the prominent role of lobbyists in McCain's inner circle might undercut the heart of his general election message: that he is reformer taking on special interests in Washington.

"The core image of John McCain is as a reformer in Washington, and the more dominant the story is about the lobbying teams around him, the more you put that into question," said Terry Nelson, who was McCain's campaign manager until he was forced out last year. "If the Obama campaign can truly change him from being seen as a reformer to just being another Washington politician, it could be very damaging over the course of the campaign."

1. Don't worry, McCain is a campaigntriot. He'll stay in this race 100 years if that's what it takes!

:rofl:

Seriously though, he has had months to get his crap together. With the media and the entire country focused on the Democrats, he has no excuse for a crumbling campaign. If this article is true, then he simply doesn't want it enough to win it.

2. There you have it: he can't.

And it's one of the things we need to be saying as soon as we've cleared up this little matter of who our nominee is going to be. In addition to being a cheap knockoff of Bush (aieeeyah!), and an LFT poster child, and way too old, and a hypocrite of the first order, he's also INCOMPETENT!

Jebus Christo, Mr. & Mrs. America (or Mr. & Mr., if you live in California), haven't we had enough of incompetence in government? Do you really want more clodhopper cronies with the brains of a can of refried beans running key government agencies? Making legal policy? Trying to figure out climate change or biomedical ethics?

I.didn't.think.so.

4. No kidding

He has had a holiday from press scrutiny -- and it is about to end.
