Maybe.

About a dozen senior campaign staffers for Rudy Giuliani are forgoing their January paychecks, aides said Friday, a sign of possible money trouble for the Republican presidential candidate.

Or maybe not.

"We have enough money, but we could always use more money," contended Mike DuHaime, Giuliani's campaign manager and one of those who now is working for free. "We want to make sure we have enough to win."

At the end of December, he said the campaign had $11.5 million cash on hand, $7 million of which can be used for the primary. He disputed the notion of a cash-strapped campaign, and said Giuliani continues to bring in cash; several fundraisers are scheduled this week in Florida.

Now let's be honest here -- if the top dogs are foregoing salaries to "make sure we have enough to win", then it would appear that the Giuliani campaign believes it might not have enough cash to win. And given the need to dig itself out of a hole created by its own flawed campaign strategy, I think that we are seeing a self-induced implosion of Rudy's campaign.

I wonder -- which of the current candidates does he want to serve under as Attorney General?
