I'd guess they could take LWOP to campaign for McCain/Palin if they
wanted to. Any cites to indicate that this is not the case would be
interesting reading indeed.

What is LWOP?


Leave With-Out Pay



I have no doubt that there are campaigners of both parties who are being
compensated either knowingly or unknowingly by their employers. Many are
probably govt employees being compensated by the taxpayer. If you extend
this back the last couple of years and consider that this happens every
4 years, that amounts to a lot of lost productivity.
