Now his brother is dumping on the campaign. Maybe Kristol is right and McCain needs to fire his campaign and start again.
McCain's brother blasts campaign strategy -- baltimoresun.com (http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/nation/politics/bal-mccainwest1014,0,2337775.story - broken link)
WASHINGTON - In a new shot across the bow of Arizona Sen. John McCain's lagging campaign, the Republican candidate's younger brother is blasting the campaign's top management and desperately pleading for a change of course.

Joe McCain, in an e-mail sent late Monday night, called on top campaign aides to allow more press access to those who know the presidential nominee best. He said loosening the tight message control was needed because it had become "counter-productive" and was "causing gangrene."

When will it stop? If the man can't run a campaign do you think he can run a country?

It's so weird. The aides are too tight on McCain, but they're letting Palin run around loose spouting whatever silly chatter pops into her head.

Is Joe McCain the same brother who called northern Virginians communists?

doesn't matter at least their campaign doesn't have to deal with an illegal immigrant, that is racist and has terrorist ties that is running for president with no political experience. the only proof of anything he ever ran is the only organization that consistently has committed voter fraud for the last 30 years.

It's sad, really. Now his brother is asking to be allowed to speak out, in interviews, on behalf of McCain.

No evidence whatsoever that Obama is an "illegal immigrant" (other than the "evidence" provided on wingnut blogs)

No evidence whatsoever that Obama is "racist."

No evidence whatsoever that Obama "has terrorist ties" (unless you are willing to claim, as well, that all the other board members of the CAC also "palled around with terrorists," including the Annenbergs, one of whom is supporting John McCain)

John McCain has no executive experience, either. And he's not as intelligent as Obama.

So what does that say for Mccain? By stating what you did above, you are saying Mccain is liked less than a racist, socialist, terrorist, cheater who has no experience.
