As if McCain wasn't facing a steep enough hill to climb in 2008

his campaign was staffed, at the highest levels, with self-serving rats. These people were consciously throwing the candidates themselves under the bus so that people would talk about the candidate's failures and flaws, instead of the campaign's failures and staffers:

...a McCain campaign staffer intimately familiar with the situation said he didn’t want to speculate on what he might have motivated Schmidt and possibly others to denigrate Palin to the media, but notes, “What people were talking about was how deeply flawed Palin was, rather than how deeply flawed the handling of Palin was, which was [the leakers'] strategic goal.”

I can't even do this post from the Corner justice. You have to read it for yourself.
