Next time try nominating a conservative who is not afraid to say the name “Ronald Reagan”. Then you won’t have this outcome.
Pure sophistry, and childish blame-shifting at that.
The American people chose a Marxist. Period. They either knew or had every opportunity to know everything they needed to know to understand that, by voting for Obama, they would be electing a Marxist.
NO OPPONENT, of any Republican or conservative stripe, is even relevant to the question of whether Americans will vote for a Marxist. The Obama voters are without excuse.
What you are saying is "if only McCain had done this, that or the other"---AS IF it's necessary to present some alternate rationales as to why Americans should not vote for a Marxist. AS IF the burden is on the opposition to convince Americans not to vote for Marxists.
It isn't. It is, or should be, enough that the candidate Obama is who he is. Even if it were "Marxist" v. "Any Republican," there is no excuse for turning our backs on our founding principles.
As I posted previously, this one is 100% on the American people.
Even if McCain had never lifted a finger to get his message out, there was AMPLE information available to anyone who cared to know that Obama is a radical with very questionable associations and tactics.
