John McCain

Message to Rick Davis – Why McCain is Tanking in the Polls

McCain campaign manger Rick Davis sitting

Wonder why Team McCain is talking about William Ayers and NOT the economy?

Listen to Rick Davis, McCain campaign manager:

Campaign shouldn’t become “CNBC News Show on the Stock Market.”

“It doesn’t mean we don’t care and aren’t trying to do something about it, it’s just I’m not exactly sure what you’d say everyday.”

One of the criticisms of John McCain is that he does not understand the American financial system or economics. If his campaign manager cannot understand the reason his candidate is tanking in the polls is due to the fact that American voters are worried about the economy and see NO REASON to vote for McCain, then Davis should concede the campaign tomorrow and get on with the Obama transition. McCain is running a Herbert Hoover type “do-nothing” campaign while the stock market and world financial markets collapse. He is fiddling about William Ayers while America’s economy is burning.

Senator McCain had better shake up his staff QUICKLY and get on with REAL IDEAS about helping America’s economy – that is if he wants to win.

Update:

Allah over at Hot Air says Ace and Geraghty agree. Well, they do after reading the latest Fox News Poll.

We are all correct. But, will Rick Davis and McCain get the message?

    Yes, I linked to the Wisconsin speech in my previous post here.

    But, Michael, McCain has to step it up and why did Rick Davis make those asinine comments?

    totally agree with you flap. mccain needs to stop this fear mongering and tell the electorate in a clear way how he is going to fix this crisis. it is obvious mccains weak points is the economy and this shows with his last policy of the govt. should buy out all the bad housing debt at its previous inflated value. mccain has run a defensive campain from the beginning . he needs to take obama on with clear and precise policy. half mccains message is trust me i know what i’m doing, i’m a maverik,i know wars,etc but then his policy has no clarity..

    I hope Obama wins because Mccain picked an air head for vice president and is running a very negative campaign.
