McCain campaign in turmoil

July
10

John McCain’s campaign, which posted weak fundraising numbers for the second quarter, seems to be unraveling.

Today, in a major shakeup, Campaign Manager Terry Nelson and Chief Strategist John Weaver announced their resignations.

“Today, John Weaver and Terry Nelson offered their resignations from my presidential campaign, which I accepted with regret and deep gratitude for their dedication, hard work and friendship,” McCain said in a statement issued just after the resignations were announced. “Terry is a consummate professional, who has ably lead this campaign through a challenging political environment. John Weaver has been my friend and trusted counselor for many years and to whom I am greatly indebted. In the days and weeks ahead this campaign will move forward, and I will continue to address the issues of greatest concern to the American people, laying out my vision for a secure and prosperous America.”
