In 2008, Democrat Joe Biden mercilessly criticized late Senator John McCain as “an angry man” too afraid to confront Barack Obama to his face.
It is an important reminder in the wake of an endorsement of Biden by McCain’s widow, Cindy.
Friction during the 2008 election arose when then-Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin mentioned links between Obama and 1960s radical leader of a domestic terrorist group, Bill Ayers.
McCain had resisted making such links for quite some time, but Palin finally put them at the forefront as the campaign was winding down.
Biden, displeased, launched an attack on the man he had claimed was his friend.

Palin was the only one on that team that didn’t know they were supposed to lose.
Hey, Biden was right!
McCain was a mean, racist... until he screwed Trump. Then he was the greatest statement of all time!
Anyway, make sure Cindy gets this info.
Here was the media in 2008:
The real McCain:

This is a well-known ritual in the Uniparty (worldwide I might add) — you play the role of “right winger” and offer token resistance to the dominant left wingers, and just as a sort of public shaming exercise, you are insulted for your service to the cause.
It might be comparable to initiation rites in a fraternity.
No wonder Palin was not in the loop, but Mitt and McCain knew their place.
McCain and Romney were both willing Designated Losers.
Both elections were elaborately staged plays with pre-determined outcomes.
Both parties decided were going to have the Kenyanesian Usurpation to create the precedent to neuter the natural born citizen protections the founders bequeathed to us.
Common core Constitution... it’s a living breathing document.. they in both parties and all branches of government have become ‘gods’... Now you servants shut up and wear your masks...
McRomney and McCain were both inexplicably weak candidates. Paul Ryan was, and is a wussy. I understand Ryano is on the board of Faux News.
Sarah Palin was the only legitimate fighter.
McCains a POS thread
