McCain campaign financing in serious trouble.

St. John, having accepted public money, is limited to spending $54 million until the Republican convention. Having spent $49 million so far, that leaves $5 million for the next 6 months, unless he opts out of the public financing. But he can't opt out of public financing because the FEC lacks a quorum to vote on his doing so because his beloved Dear Leader and Congress are fighting over ODEL's choice of a notorious vote fraudster for an FEC seat. Poor old John is in a bind. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

UPDATE:
In an attempt to prove himself Republican presidential materiel, St. John has declared himself able to judge laws for himself.
But at a campaign stop in Indiana, McCain replied with a dismissive "no" when asked if he was concerned by the FEC's letter.

"It's not a decision. It's an opinion, according to our people," he said.
A true acolyte of Our Dear Embattled Leader.
