The McCain campaign is trying a new tactic to boost their funds, reportedly negotiating a $3 million loan in order to obtain the seed money they'll need to turn his currently boost in the polls into some real progress on the ground.
The campaign has also been considering taking matching funds, but they don't want to be encumbered by the per-state spending restrictions that come with the public money.
Meanwhile, the campaign finance reform advocate will be getting some help from a curious outside source, with an new independent group about to run ads on his behalf in South Carolina. The ads are being produced by longtime GOP ad man Rick Reed, who also co-produced the Swift Boat ads in 2004. McCain's aides said they have no involvement or knowledge of the ads.
The group making them, calling itself Foundation for a Secure and Prosperous America, is being finance mainly by McCain supporters, and Reed himself was a volunteer with the McCain campaign earlier this year.

In a series of interviews to promote his new book, Revolution of Hope, former Mexican leader Vicente Fox has trumpeted rampant globalization and has declared anyone who opposes such "harmonization" and diminishment of sovereignty "racist" and "xenophobic".
Over the course of a week Fox has called for a North American Union, a single North American currency and a complete overhaul of the U.S. immigration policy to allow more Mexicans to legally enter the country.
To the wild cheers of the Daily Show audience Fox called for U.S. immigration reform stating "It's my impression that fear is guiding public opinion here and xenophobia. They are thinning the space because Congress has not decided yet, it is a hundred year old issue, immigration, and I think they can come up with a very wise solution to immigration because it's a win-win situation, everybody will be better off."
When asked if he supported globalization through NAFTA, Fox responded:
"Yes, absolutely, NAFTA has been good, as a matter of fact we should have a new vision, go further, integrating and working together to build a better future for both.
"That happened with Spain and with the European Union with them joining the union and having access to those huge cohesive bonds, they were able to overcome poverty and today Spain, or Ireland or Greece or Portugal are all very successful nations, what you need is a little bit of solidarity."
Stewart then went on to ask "Would you like to see a North American Union with the U.S. Mexico, and Canada, you want Canada in there?"
To which Fox responded "Yes long term, yes."
