McCain
Out by Labor Day?
My first choice for who I'd like to see this happening to, is Rudy...but all in good time.
WASHINGTON — 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.
They spoke on condition of anonymity because the plans have not been made public. An afternoon conference call was scheduled to announce the results of second-quarter fundraising.
Once considered the front-runner for the GOP nomination, McCain came in third in the money chase behind Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani, raising $13.6 million in the first three months of the year. He is struggling to reach that total in the second financial quarter, and wasn't expected to match it.

Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
Proving tax cuts work!
Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

I even remember some NeoCon McCain-fans laughing at my prediction!

This is one down and one to go with my bet with my brother. He swore it was going to be Rudy or McCain, and said that I was "crazy" when I mentioned Fred Thompson.I predicted long ago, that the Old Fossil didn't stand a chance of becoming presidnet.

500 bucks baby.

I never really thought McCain had all that much of a chance. There are definitely Republicans that like him but most of his support (in 2000 especially) were from Independents and even some Democrats. He has lost that "maverick" appeal with independents but did not gain the Republican base.

Sweet! That 500 bucks is as good as in the bank. It's a matter of time before Rudy craters....IMO

I agree, I have no idea why my brother was so convinced it HAD to be Rudy or McCain. He must have been watching too much tv.
Who are you leaning towards in the primaries?

The bank? That money ain't never going to see no bank! I am going straight to Bloomies with that.Sweet! That 500 bucks is as good as in the bank. It's a matter of time before Rudy craters....IMO

A year ago, I was certainly one of those who was "positive" it would be McCain vs. Hillary.
I am quite shocked how quickly he tanked his campaign. He went from being a maverick in the party (which I liked) to a pandering sheep (which I gotta say... not so appealing).
The Force is With Me
Good riddance
I don't think Rudybella is going to make it to the gate either.

"I don't think Rudybella is going to make it to the gate either."
Agreed. I am also beginning to doubt Hillary's chances. Which means I will be wrong twice in one year, which is WAY beyond my average.

Right now, no one. I can honestly say if I was told I had to pick someone in the Republican primary today I would not know who to pick. Fred Thompson has appeal to me but I think that's just because he is an outsider right now. Once he gets in I'll probably feel the same about him as I do the others.
