What's the role of McCain Communications Director Jill Hazelbaker? She's suspected of having trolled the BlueJersey blog on behalf of Tom Kean in the 2006 Senate race in New Jersey. Might she be behind the the McCain bury brigade?
Then again, maybe she is too busy to worry about the web. After all, she's got to deal with McCain -- a boss who makes her cry.
Mr. McCain is known to sign off on big campaign decisions and then to march off his own reservation. Two weeks ago, he publicly disagreed with his own spokeswoman, Jill Hazelbaker, after she used a line of attack against Senator Barack Obama that he had approved after careful strategizing within his campaign. Ms. Hazelbaker raced out of the Virginia campaign headquarters and refused to take Mr. McCain’s calls of apology, aides said, and a plan to have Republican members of Congress use the same critical line about Mr. Obama’s foreign trip fell apart.
