I am not endorsing a candidate by any stretch, but here is an interesting story about the

McCain Campaign.  He is planning on decentralizing the campaign  to ten regional managers. Each will talk with headquarters every day.  Most decisions will be left to the managers. Business talks about this but we rarely see it especially in politics. Certainly the Dem campaigns appear tightly controlled from the top. will this work, we shall see. This is a most interesting campaign season so it is hard to resist posting articles about the management of the campaigns. This is a topic in managerial accounting, if this works, expect a book on how McCain really became the Come From Behind Kid at Age 71!
