McCain lost because:
1. A slavish media that Bill Clinton 92 would be jealous of.
2. Obama’s $600 million war chest that allowed him to outspend McCain by 5-1.
3. An economic meltdown that McCain did not provide conservative leadership on, and Obama became the primary beneficiary of the chaos.
4. McCain’s inability to speak articulately and communicate ideas.
5. He dissed his based and told them that Obama was a decent person and [Obama] would make a fine president.
