On Monday, John  McCain's campaign released a statement signed by 300 
economists who  "enthusiastically support" his "Jobs for America" economic plan. 
There's  just one problem. 
Politico reports, "Upon closer  inspection, it seems a good many of those 
economists don't actually  support the whole of McCain's economic agenda. And at 
least one doesn't  even support McCain for president." 
In interviews with  several signatories, Politico  found that, "far from 
embracing McCain's economic plan, many were  unfamiliar with—or downright opposed 
to—key details. While most of those  contacted by Politico had warm feelings 
about McCain, many did not want  to associate themselves too closely with his 
campaign and its policy  prescriptions."
