Remember McCain was the guy who said we had nothing to be afraid of if Obama got elected. The only people who should be embarrassed would be the idiots in Arizona that keep reelecting him.

Angle wasn’t perfect? She was a looney toon. She snatched defeat from the jaws of victory by opening her stupid mouth when she didn’t need to about stuff that didn’t matter. Nevada (well, with the exception of Las Vegas) wanted Reid gone. Either of the other candidates would have won. I love the Tea Party, but with Angle they chose a clinker. Her politics were right but she was on this “right makes might” kick that soured her campaign. Ditto for O’Donnell in MD. She also had an uncontrollable mouth. We didn’t deserve to loose either of these seats.

McCain is aging and I believe he can't remember what he's said, and to who.

He was pitiful last night on "Hannity" trying to back peddle on statements he made in his Senate speech earlier yesterday.

He's now reduced himself to nothing more than a MINOR character passing through.

`Cause he’s bad, bad Bilbo Baggins,
Baddest hobbit in the whole darn shire,

He got a custom suit of armor,
He got a razor in his shoe,
He got a .32 pistol in his pocket
etc. and so forth and so on.

Moral: Bad hobbits are hard to break

We don’t have to worry about the old hero much longer. His days are about gone. He will keel over soon, or end up in the dementia ward at the local senior ward. God grant him rest from his journey.

Sounds like the Old John McCain has reemerged.

McCain has serious brain damage. There, I said it.

Yep, and I saw some real insanity on his face a few times way before he ever put his hat in the ring. The really sorry thing is that even an insane person would have been less damaging than what we got...

Angle and O'Donnell were both horrid candidates. Probably right on almost every issue, but politically inept and incapable of winning. Sadly, being right just is not enough. Never has been, isn't now and never will be.

None of this excuses grumpy for attacking them from the Senate floor. There was no reason to do that and it was really an attack on the Tea Party in general rather than just those 2 losing nominees.

At least now she knows why she didn’t win. Only the people of Arizona are gullible enough to keep believing this lyin’ Rhino!

[Angle wasn’t perfect? She was a looney toon. ]

And I suppose you were here, on the ground with the Angle campaign? And I suppose you have written a biography of Harry Reid and know many of the players involved and how crooked the campaig was with Sig Rogich and Republicans For eid? And I suppose you know of Sue Lowden’s potential defects (Paul Lowden sitting at a table with mobster Joey Cusamano?). And I suppose the usual last minute union (cough mafia) shenanigans made no difference?

In short, your analysis is stinking up the joint, it is sooo yesterday Rovian.

[Either of the other candidates would have won. ]

That is false. I know what they would have done to Lowden, I did a lot of research. She was next in line, not Tarkanian. Even Tark would have been outed by his own mother or done in by daddy, who are both a bit shady.

Sharron was nutty but clean. The other two had baggage, and I even like them both.

Trust me, the dirt here goes way deeper than you have any conceivable idea. Go watch Casino, or buy my book if you want to throw me a bone. I didn’t say Angle was great, just that you are naive to think the outcome would have been different with another candidate given the Orc army that inhabits this place.
