McCain cuts staff after low fundraising

Yahoo News

WASHINGTON -
Republican John McCain struggled to keep his deeply troubled campaign afloat Monday, laying off dozens of staffers after lackluster fundraising and excessive spending left him with just $2 million for his second presidential bid.

John McCain, like John Edwards, was a media creation. Both men have never had the level of support their supporters and members of the media claim they have had. For example in 2000, McCain never did have much support among the GOP... He only did good in primaries where Democrats and Independents were allowed to vote. In '04 with Edwards, he couldn't even win his own state, much less any other state in America.
