Phil Gramm, Mr. Sensitive
I’m a subscriber to Jim Hightower’s newsletter. This month’s issue is about all the lobbyists that are working for McCain’s campaign. You can’t read the whole article online, but here are some excerpts.
This is what Jim wrote in reference to Phil’s comment about Americans being a “nation of whiners”

Hightower also wrote that once McCain’s lobbyist staffers were discovered that he started a new rule that
