New York Times: He has been called a spoiler. A would-be Ralph Nader. A thorn in the side of Senator John McCain. None of it bothers Bob Barr, who gleefully recounted what he says a group of Republicans told him at a recent meeting. "'Well, gee, you might take votes from Senator McCain,’” Mr. Barr said this week, mimicking one of the complainers.

John McCain has some serious trouble with his own party, particularly large swaths of voters whom he has offended with his temper, attitude, legislative work, and lack of conservative credentials. A look at five of the most notable groups.

John McCain is portraying himself as an advocate for eliminating private funding from the general election when truth is that about one-half of his general election campaign will be financed by private sources by laundering it through the RNC ($19.1 mil + $17.9 mil), state GOPs ($35.2), using 2004 figures, which are likely to be underestimates.

"Bob could be the Ralph Nader of 2008," said Dan Schnur, a GOP consultant in California who worked on McCain's 2000 campaign but is not involved in this year's contest. Consumer advocate Nader is the third-party candidate many Democrats blame for helping George W. Bush narrowly win in 2000.

John McCain is facing serious troubles with female voters - if the voices of a growing number of prominent Republican women are any indication."I cannot see a more counterproductive candidate for women," said Jillian Manus-Salzman, a leading California Republican activist and generous GOP donor, adding "I cannot vote for McCain."

When it comes to presidential elections, Ohio has been- in recent years- a boon to the GOP. But this time around, things are looking bright for the Obama campaign in the Buckeye State, where three consecutive polls have given Obama a comfortable lead over John McCain in the general election.
