Well, Randy Scheunemann now insists that he wasn't really fired by the McCain campaign in the final days of the election for hitching his wagon to the Palin trainwreck and dishing against McCain to the press, or at least so he now says. But ...

However, Goldfarb did concede that Scheunemann's campaign e-mail was cut off, and his blackberry was taken away late Friday. Goldfarb admits that senior McCain aides were mad at Scheunemann, and wanted to fire him, but he insists they stopped short of that, and instead simply turned off his campaign communication.

Just think what the country has lost by not having this team running the national government at this time.

I didn't know the Scheunemann had almost lost his job before the end of the campaign. But I have been working on a post about some career advice for Scheunemann because the results of the election do seem likely to have a big impact on his bottom line.
