Last August, I noted that the state of the McCain campaign's transportation arrangments had become strikingly similar to an Onion article mocking McCain's campaign. So now that he has been the presumptive nominee of the Republican party for over three months, he should have the transportation thing squared away, right???
I recently discovered McCain's daughter, Meghan McCain, has a crappy blog about her dad's presidential run. This picture stood out to me:
The optics strike me as being incredibly bad for McCain here. I don't recall the Republican nominee, in June of an election year, travelling around on a discount airline in any election in my lifetime. As my posting from last August alludes to, McCain's campaign has already very nearly crashed and burned once from financial mismanagement. And now we also learn that the McCains have hundreds of thousands of dollars in credit card debt.
Is it possible that McCain is not ready for prime time, financially speaking?
