Is it just me or does McCain have some unusually bad surrogates?

It seems to me that McCain's campaign is ill-served by the people he sends out to represent him in the media. I almost can't keep up with how many times Tucker Bounds has gotten his ass kicked on tv. Nancy Pfotenhauer is better, but not much. Carly Fiorina made an ass out of herself yesterday, but that was hardly the first time. McCain's even sent out Rudy to shill for him and that guy has all the appeal and charisma of a ghoul.

I saw one woman, a congresswoman on a show the other night representing McCain and she was pretty good. Other than that he has some poor representation.

I remember 4 years ago, Bush at least had some good representatives, of course, I couldn't stand them but I'd have sawed my arms off before I'd have ever voted for Bush. I always thought Matthew Dowd, Karen Hughes, Dan Bartlett etc, were all pretty effective. Dowd and Hughes were always top notch representatives. Always on message, cool under fire, very skilled surrogates. McCain's people seem all over the map and have little appeal.

Not that it hurts my feelings any, you just think the GOP bench would be a little deeper than it is for good surrogates.

3. I'm just waiting for them to find the door with that famous PT Barnum sign:

"This Way to the Egress."

lol

5. His roster of guys named Tucker have let him down, Carly Fiorina and Eric Cantor are disasters

and some blond woman who appears on M$NBC is a total joke.

6. Eric Cantor was thug-jacked by Tweety

yesterday. That was pure brutality. That guy probably cried himself to sleep last night.
