Is this a sign that the McCain campaign's "Straight Talk Express" bus is in the breakdown lane with three flat tires and flames shooting out from under the hood?  Sure sounds like it.  According to Washington Post reporter Chris Cillizza, "Terry Nelson, McCain's campaign manager, and John Weaver, the senator's longtime chief political strategist, have stepped aside."  In addition, "deputy campaign manager Reed Galen and political director Rob Jesmer have also resigned their positions with McCain effective immediately."

Ouch.
