If only this were true:
WASHINGTON (AP) – John McCain’s campaign today announced that Senator McCain has been let go from his role in the campaign. A senior McCain official stated that the Senator’s parting was “amicable” but “we needed to tighten our belts, and we were spending a lot of money on his travel and support staff and didn’t feel we were getting the best value for our dollar having him on the campaign.” A high-level strategy meeting was being held to determine next steps, but the official insisted that the campaign was “still optimistic that we can be as competitive, if not moreso, without Senator McCain.”
