It is common sense that when you smell smoke and feel a hot door in your house, it'd be best to get the hell out and call for help. When John McCain's staff sees none other than arch neo-conservative Bill Kristol scream "fire" in the face of a campaign burning down, it would be smart to take a look at what he was saying (even if he's a pathological liar in most respects). Instead, McCain hack Nancy Pfotenhauer takes a different route and does what Republicans run amok do best, attack their own.
From ThinkProgress:
Yesterday on Fox News Sunday, Bill Kristol said John McCain’s campaign has really become “a pathetic campaign.” In his New York Times op-ed this morning, Kristol went further, suggesting that McCain should “fire his campaign” and “start over.” Asked to respond to Kristol’s criticisms, McCain campaign spokeswoman Nancy Pfotenhauer said on Fox News:
Well, you know Bill is entitled to his perspective. And I used to work for Bill. And I can tell you personally sometimes he’s brilliant and sometimes he’s not. And this is one where it’s the latter category. You know, I think unfortunately he has bought into the Obama campaign’s party line.
Republicans are great at eating their own after the panic buttons have been pressed, but going after Kristol is just lmao hilarious. If Pfotenhauer thinks that Bill "The Bloody" buys anything that comes from the Obama campaign, then she either has a serious mind-altering drug problem or is drinking way too many pitchers of the potent McCain campaign Kool-Aid.
