The guy on the corner begging? That used to be John McCain
Ran for president a couple times. Funny thing, when he ran out of money all his friends left.

How has this man pissed away what? $20 million already?

1. Apparently, it's easier to blow $20 mil than I thought:

Sorry to get off on a tangent there. Your post made me think of this story in yesterday's paper.

3. Or to attempt to blow $20
Which is a problem if an undercover cop and one's Florida campaign manager are involved in the transaction...

2. He also wasted 6 years of PR.
The people on The Daily Show loved him.

Don't look for his return anytime soon.
