This is disgusting from both Politico and the idiots who leaked to them.

You know if he loses, it was because he was a bad candidate. Its never the staff. But it shows McCain apparently can't control his staff the way Bush could.

I think the bigger issue has been that the staff couldn’t control McCain.

This reads like it was totally fabricated by Politico. Name some people who left the campaign many months ago, salt it with a Rick Davis quote about wanting some more cash. Oh yeah.

The election is close and when his own people say its doomed - you wonder why they leak it? It designed to depress and suppress conservative turnout. You'll never hear this stuff from the Obama campaign reported.

“and the idiots who leaked to them”

It’s 1/2 fictional and 1/2 “former” McCain workers who probably have an axe to grind.

Watch, the momentum journalism will be ratcheted up by the liberals.

“The election is close and when his own people say its doomed - you wonder why they leak it? It designed to depress and suppress conservative turnout. You’ll never hear this stuff from the Obama campaign reported.”

Assuming anyone from the McCain campaign actually leaked anything.

Which I doubt. Whatever their faults, McCain’s staffers don’t appear to be leakers (or Palin wouldn’t have been such a shock as his VP pick).

This comes out the same time two polls show McCain tied with Obama. Wonder why now?

Sorry to say, but they should be in a circular firing squad......

Under the leadership of McCain we’ve seen a GOP plan that went like this:

Conservatives running throughout the country were thrown under the bus.... so the Dems took their money and put it all on defeating the RINO incumbents....

So even if McCain wins he’s going to be fighting a congress that is dominated by Dems with enough votes to overcome his veto......

DUMB DUMB DUMB

And all because McCain and his RINO buddies would rather deal with a Dem dominated congress then to see a few extra conservatives in the GOP.

Sheesh.....

“The cake is baked,” agreed a former McCain strategist. “We’re entering the finger-pointing and positioning-for-history part of the campaign. It’s every man for himself now.”

Well, sounds like he's got a head start out the door.  heh.

I’m not attacking you here, but what on earth is the attraction to the Politico???

I have seen a bunch of threads posted from it, and it is nearly all uniformly derogatory towards conservatives.

Why do people continually post stuff from them? Are they supposed to be some kind of authoritative source?
