Really.
CNN Political Ticker
A female volunteer in New Hampshire advised him to get new paid staff, because the ones he has apparently don't work:
"You've got two people sitting right here next to me...They have done more work for you volunteering than a lot of your paid staff have. All your signs that are up outside today, they were put up by us, not by your staff people."
CNN's take was that she figured the question/statement would put her on McCains' sh*t list. But his response is what should have gotten the emphasis (glanced over as usual)....
McCain, whose campaign has battled charges of incompetence — even from some within his own party — joked, "A lot of our paid staff, a lot of them are on work release programs as you know."
Uh huh.
Never mind the fact that he just changed the deck chairs on his ship at the beginning of the month, his campaign is riddled with criminals who are one step ahead of justice. So... I guess it's best to gloss over all of that with a joke about it. Like Bush at the G8 summit and other Republican knee slappers.
I don't even think this ascends to the level of frat boy humor. And that McCain's "jokes" can be as bad - and as vicious - as Bush's, should make it clear to anyone that he's unfit for the presidency.
And I hope that woman comes to her senses and finds a real presidential candidate to volunteer for.
