But Mr. McCain’s advisers said the Mississippi race underlined his intention to distance himself as much as possible from Congressional Republicans. Mr. McCain has already been openly critical of some of President Bush’s strategies.

The level of distress was evident in remarks by senior party officials throughout the day.

They might seriously need to bolt the upstairs windows down at the NRCC, RNC, and NRSC to prevent a tragedy.
