I think you are 180 degrees off the target.
McCain expects to win.
And I expect it to be a landslide. Too many people are learning about the REAL Obamanation.
Most people, who are not political junkies like we FReepers, don’t follow things as close as we do. But they will see a politician who is putting his personal interests aside for the country and they will appreciate it. They won’t hear about the little details and don’t care to. My guess is that McCain will be up in the polls this weekend.
