Phil Gramm Resigns From McCain Campaign
This is really too bad.
NEW YORK - Phil Gramm, a top adviser to presidential candidate John McCain, said Friday he is resigning from the role as campaign co-chairman after his comments that the United States had become a “nation of whiners” who constantly complain about the state of the economy.
For all the controversy that surrounded Gramm’s comments he wasn’t wrong.
That McCain ousted him from the campaign shows a weakness of character and lack of leadership that speaks volumes about McCain himself. Rather than a “stick to your guns” sort of leader willing to do what he thinks is right despite the whimsical opinions of the media and the mob McCain is showing himself to be the sort of finger-in-the-wind politician that Bill Clinton was.
