We need to realize that McCain is not going to fight the good fight. We ourselves need to drag him across the finish line.

You believe this tripe?

"We ourselves need to drag him across the finish line."

Why worry now?

We ourselves need to drag him across the finish line.

The McCain campaign is reminiscent of GHWBush's re-election campaign. It wasn't happening. He wasn't doing much. Republicans were wondering why he wasn't battling. Finally, about 2 weeks before the election, he started to show some life. By then, it was all over but the inauguration parties -- for Clinton.

A short time after the election a reporter did an interview with him. One of the questions the reported asked was why Bush didn't mount a more aggressive re-election campaign.

Bush reponded that he thought, being the incumbent, he had the election in the bag and didn't see much need in really campaigning.

McCain needs to show some assertiveness, some aggression, some fight, some spirit. He is running a lackluster campaign.

McCain needs to wake up to the fact that this young, inexperienced, short-term junior senator defeated Mrs. Inevitable and the Clinton Machine for the Democratic nomination. McCain acts like they are running for high school student council president.
