The latest developments on the question of whether John McCain has managed to remove his head from his ass indicate that the answer to the question is still a thundering "No."
The most recent guy promoted in an effort to revive McCain's stagnant national campaign?
Mike DuHaime, the man whose most recent claim to fame is running Rudy Giuliani's Presidential Campaign into the ground.
His previous gig? DuHaime headed the RNC 2006 Campaign to defend the Republicans' majorities in Congress.
What's he done since Giuliani's campaign failed? He's been working as an adviser to McCain's campaign.
So if I understand correctly, Duhaime's three most recent activities are 1) taking part in the epic failure of the McCain campaign over the last four months to find a message or build a reliable field operation, 2) Fucking up Giuliani's Campaign and 3) Fucking up the 2006 Republican Campaign.
With a track record like this, my first two thoughts are 1) McCain is an idiot and 2) How can I work for his campaign? If this guy has presided over two epic failures of campaigns and is now McCain's Political Director, what position can I get from McCain, if I haven't even fucked up one campaign yet?
