Senator Mccain cuts staffs


Some 50 staffers or more are being let go, and senior aides will
be subject to pay cuts as the Arizona senator bows to six months
of subpar fundraising, according to officials with knowledge of
the details of the shake up.


Republican John McCain reorganized his campaign Monday,
cutting staff in every department as he raised just $11.2 million in
the last three months and reported an abysmal $2 million cash on hand
for his presidential bid.



"We confronted reality and we dealt with it in the best way that
we could so that we could move forward," said Terry Nelson,
McCain's campaign manager.

Once considered the front-runner for the GOP nomination, McCain trails top Republican rivals in money and polls.

Some 50 staffers or more are being let go, and senior aides will be subject
to pay cuts as the Arizona senator bows to six months of subpar fundraising, according to officials with knowledge of the details of the shake up.
They spoke on condition of anonymity because the campaign would not
publicly discuss details of the restructuring.

McCain's tally in the second financial quarter, which ended Saturday,
is expected to trail those of Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani, who have
not yet released their totals. In the first quarter, McCain came in third
and raised just $13.6 million.
