(NYTimes) "After Mr. McCain completed his speech, he walked through the Capitol, where he sharply dismissed questions about whether his campaign was in trouble and insisted that he had not fired either Mr. Weaver or Mr. Nelson.

“No, no, no, no,” Mr. McCain said. “I’d describe the campaign as going well. I’m very happy with it. People are free to make their own assessments. I think we’re doing fine.”

Politico has a good post on the departures at the McCain campaign.

Chris Cilizza counts 5 top campaign staffers leaving.

Later: A second Politico post hinting that McCain was unhappy over where all his money went.

  • Is John McCain turning into a troll of some sort? He's hasn't been looking well lately... But he is, like, 103 years old, or something... right?

  • I don't remember exactly. It's 70 maybe? 72 when he would take office?

    Of course, trolls live quite a long time....

  • McCain: "See, I can shoot laser beams out of my eyes just like Superman and that is why I'm going to win this campaign."

  • James, that's really funny. He does look like he's thinking, "Burst into flames! Burst into flames!"

    Anon, Only if he's doing those commercials with Bob Dole.
