John McCain Rearranges The Deck Chairs
Tweet
The warmonger is going down.
John McCain’s campaign, trailing top Republican rivals in money and polls, is undergoing a significant reorganization with staff cuts in every department, officials with knowledge of the shake-up said Monday.
Some 50 staffers or more are being let go, and senior aides will be subject to pay cuts as the Arizona senator’s campaign bows to the reality of six months of subpar fundraising, these officials said.
May he take the rest of their horrible field with him.
UPDATE: More details on the rapidly deteriorating McCain campaign.

This is great timing. It frees up about 50 McCain staffers to go to work for Fred Thompson.
“This is great timing. It frees up about 50 McCain staffers to go to work for Fred Thompson.”
Good. McCain has a better chance against Clinton that Thompson does.
So at this early stage it’s between Giulianininoonoo and Sir Fred Churchill-Nixon. With Newt to enter the ring later this year.
Doesn’t seem fair that you disparage McCain’s patriotism.
I’m “lobbying” everybody who just got fired by McCain to hop aboard the USS Fred “Hollywood” Thompson!
There’s gaurenteed work for at least a few months more.
Get the Repub welfare while the goin’s good!
Us 26 Percenters actually think a right wing ideologue like Freddie appeals to the majority of Americans, and not just us ignorant 26 Percenters.
Doesn’t seem fair that you disparage McCain’s patriotism.
When did that happen?
SHUT UP IT JUST DID OKAY
I thought per the Kerry campaign that if you criticized a war veteran you were challenging his patriotism. Maybe the rule is that only counts for leftist veterans.
And please Nimmer. No more all caps. Please. Just when someone thinks they’ve made a point, in you zoom with your killer caps – laying waste to all that is ‘right’ in the blogosphere. The true sign of a cyber-genius – all caps. Have mercy! I’ll vote for Barrack Osama. Just stop the caps.
“I thought per the Kerry campaign that if you criticized a war veteran you were challenging his patriotism. Maybe the rule is that only counts for leftist veterans.”
Dugger, you don’t need to make up for the lack of Frank’s stupidity by increasing your own.
Lying about a veteran and attack his patriotism cause his disagrees with you is wrong. And that’s exactly what happened to Kerry.
Talking about McCain’s failing campaign is neither of those.
So CS, you don’t consider calling a POW a “war monger” (a war, I remind you, many Denocrats voted for) challenging his patriotism. I don’t know, but I don’t think a real patriot would vote for wars he felt were unjust or unnecessary. The implication is that McCain is needlessly killing American troops. I’d say thats damn close to challenging his patriotism.
That’s kind of a stretch, there. Dugger.
And Nimmer’s all-caps is clearly sarcasm. Which I find humo(u)rous and apropos.
“And Nimmer’s all-caps is clearly sarcasm’
Whew! thats a relief! You don’t know the agony those caps caused.
And yes it was a bit of a stretch, wasn’t it. Perhaps, humourous of me, what!
I probably read too much Questionable Content. Sue me.
Um, I think that Dugger’s point is predicated on the assumption that all the Swift Boat Fuckheads for Shit did was point at John Kerry and laugh, rather than actually questioning his patriotism.
“So CS, you don’t consider calling…”
Duros said it all. And your pathetic argument is basically an admission of defeat.
Excellent point CS. I guess its OK then, on the left, to besmirch the reputation of a heroic POW. Hey, its your conscience if you’ve got one. Read about McCain’s suffering some time. Or don’t if you value your current opinions.

When and where did anyone here question McCain’s service record? What we’re criticising is completely unrelated to that. Look, I understand that you hate America and all, but you really need to get a clue.
Oops. That one was me, forgot to change the personal info back. =P

Do you guys value hypocrisy? Is it like mother’s milk to you?
I’m just glad morons like you are down to 26% of the population. As soon as the media learns it doesn’t have to treat you guys seriously anymore, the world will be a much better place.
