The regional spokesman for John McCain in Colorado accidentally sent the campaign’s internal talking points on the candidate’s plans to suspend his campaign to its entire Colorado media list, instead of a list of key volunteers, Wednesday afternoon, PolitickerCO’s Jeremy Pelzer reports.

WOW!

Told by a reporter that the e-mail had been sent to him and others in the media, Kise said, "****, tell me I didn’t send it to the wrong list.”

This could have been utterly disasterous to the McCain campaign. Imagine if this had contained any additional "behind the scenes" talking points. Part of me has to wonder if this "accident" was intentional, however. I mean, it's the electronic age and these people are supposedly professionals, you'd think they'd triple check their distribution lists & attachments before clicking "send."

Could have been a disaster.....

I get all the McCain talking points I would ever need right here at ATS!

McCain once stated himself he barely knows how to use a PC and send e-mails. Something like that. But I think he's got people doing that for him. And it seems they know exactly what they're doing. On purpose. Looks like strategy to me. That's what he meant by a more transparent government ?
