. . . how McCain got the nomination in the first place

A process of elimination. From the beginning, only Thompson had the right combination of presence, conservatism, and electability. But he never seemed to want it.

Thompson was my number one choice. Could you imgaine a Thompson/Palin campaign this past year. It would have been vastly different.

Thompson is a great guy to have in your corner, but you’re right. His drive was never there.
