If McCain was so beloved and such a giant, why was a neophyte black from Chicago with a shady past and a Muslim name able to beat him so handily for the presidency?
He’d have lost 40 states without Palin. And his lefty aides like Nicole Wallace blame Palin.
Because McCain lost on purpose.

Because he ran to lose, that’s why. Rino backstabber...
Well, that’s different. He pretty much endorsed Ebola. Azzhat.
Funny that you say that.
Several big dollar 100% liberal democrat donors from Hollywood and Seattle were donating the maximum allowable contributions to McCain when he competed in the Republican primary election. Funny, eh?
They NEEDED to run BHO against McCain so that the eligibility issue was skewed. (Text of S.Res. 511 (110th): A resolution recognizing that John Sidney McCain, III, is a natural born citizen.
Plus, John promised to be a good loser. He never had any serious intention of winning.
McCain not only insisted that he would make the key decisions in his campaign, but he held long, rambling Sunday afternoon meetings with his senior political advisers and staff at the sprawling and luxurious McCain ranch in Sedona, Arizona. For most of the political professionals who participated, it was an expensive and exhausting waste of time consumed in travel and in meetings that decided little but provided a platform and sounding board for McCain.
Gradually, out of frustration, and for the sake of family time, many of McCain's hired professionals begged off regular attendance at the Sunday afternoon meetings in Sedona. McCain though remained in control of his campaign, which made for erratic, delayed, and often inept decisions.
Notably, a friend who worked in the McCain campaign at a high level came to dislike John McCain but developed considerable respect for Cindy McCain. If appointed to her husband's Senate seat, Cindy McCain may prove to be both a good Senator and the GOP team player that he husband was not.
