McCain still managed to win 47 percent of the vote.

He only won 47% of the vote because 47% of the voters were able to see just how much of a disaster Zero will be. It had NOTHING at all to do with McCain. I'd be willing to be that a brick of cheese could have gotten 47% of the vote if the alternative was obama, and that a decent candidate would have beaten him quite handily.

True, the brick of cheese would have had a 57 state sweep.
