Where is he getting this money from?

A lot of candidates who are typically safe just bank their money over years and years and years - as McCain has done - allowing for a rather substantial emergency reserve.

The fact that he feels compelled to deplete nearly all of his reserves speaks volumes about what internal polling must be telling them after the first two debates.

When you control 1/100th of 1/2 of the legislative power of the US and over its trillions of dollar yearly budget, money beats a path to your door.

And they work for it. Good thing they spend half their time raising money and only half legislating. Imagine if they spent ALL that time legislating! shudder!

I thought that McCain, co-author of CFR, was opposed to such obscene amounts of money being spent on political campaigns.
