Connecticut Rep. Chris Shays: "I just don't see how [McCain] can win,"

And this was before the infomercial, wink:

New England's lone House Republican appears to have publicly broken with his party's standard-bearer, saying John McCain has not run a clean campaign and is likely to lose his bid for the presidency.

Shays, who in 2006 became the only Republican congressman from New England, perennially finds himself in a heated re-election race.
