I’ll say it again: I donated to McCain, but the conduct of his campaign has been a shocking disappointment. The fact that McCain would hire the same individuals who smeared him in 2000 is disgraceful. The fact that McCain would turn those consultants loose against Obama doesn’t surprise me anymore, and the long list of outright lies is yet another disgrace.
