McCain Says He's Happy With Campaign
Source: Associated Press

By MIKE GLOVER


URBANDALE, Iowa (AP) - John McCain on Sunday assured Iowa supporters that he's doing fine and intends to seriously compete in the state's leadoff caucuses despite staff cuts and money problems.

The Republican presidential candidate met privately with supporters, then held a news conference at his Iowa campaign headquarters.

"I'm happy about the state of our campaign," the Arizona senator told reporters. "We will do fine. We are competitive and we will win in Iowa."

McCain said he met with backers to let them know his campaign was strong.

2. He's happy how Boosh is running the country too.
Pretty low standards there, Johnnie Boy.

4. Staff cuts?
That must be all those folks who bailed out of his campaign.

What an idiot!

5. He's sounding like Katherine Harris!
"we're going to WIN!" And, Baghdad is just like Indiana.

He's just coming off as totally delusional these days!

21. Katie had Moxie and Spunk
and John has his Gay sweaters.

Of course maybe he's just happy because the toot fairy left him a couple of extra bucks under his pillow for his campaign.

6. McCain said he met with backers to let them know ...
... his campaign is strong.

He also assured them that the Sun revolves around a flat earth, construction of DisneyWorld Baghdad is complete and already filled with joyous customers, and every US citizen will get a million dollar check in the mail as soon as he's in office ...

... oh, and he also swore to stamp out gay sweaters in our lifetime, a statement that was met by a standing ovation from his supporters (all three of them).

As Dan Quayle once said, "A mind truly IS a terrible thing to lose."

15. we do not need this looney running the country
After his market-walk, you would have thought he had learned a lesson - that we are not as dumb as he thinks. Close, but not quite.

19. McCain is Counting on Another Reichstag Fire to Boost His Candidacy
What McCain doesn't know is that another Reichstag Fire means no more elections — ever.
