Well, there is a very good chance that you are absolutely 100% on target with your conclusion. And as you state, assuming he didn’t, you’ve expressed what my thoughts on it are.
McCain being unsellable, we are going over the line to destroy Obama. None of us are going to vote for the man. Zero, zip, nada... If I’ve seen more than five people here over the last six months who have said they may vote for him, I’d be surprised. When I have seen it, I have encouraged them not to.
To me it seems like we are verging on becoming the reverse of DailyKOS, DU, and Moveon.org. Frankly... no thanks. Counter them? Hell yes. Adopt their tactics? Hell no.

FR does not sponsor or sanction hate speech against racial, religious, or ethnic groups, nor does it tolerate inappropriate remarks about serious illnesses—all of which Kos, MyBO, and/or MoveOn.org have. Bill O’Reilly reports that the Daily Kos tolerated a celebration of Tony Snow’s death at its Web site. MyBO included a post to the effect that Alzheimer’s Disease is “funny” while falsely attributing this illness to a political opponent.
