McCain official dismissive of campaign surrogates

A top economic surrogate for Republican presidential candidate John McCain doesn't think people are paying much attention to what people like her have to say.

In discussing McCain economic adviser Phil Gramm's remarks about the U.S. becoming a 'nation of whiners' and suffering a 'mental recession,' former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina was dismissive of the source.

'Outside of Washington, where this is an interesting parlor game, I think most Americans are not really focused on what a bunch of surrogates are saying,' Fiorina said on 'Meet the Press' on NBC. 'They're focused on what the candidates are saying.'
