Dobson endorsed Palin. McCain got the nod purely because he chose Palin. Up to that point, he wasn’t going to get it from Dobson.
Nor from me.
McCain’s loss had nothing to do with Dobson. McCain ran a lousy campaign. He wouldn’t tackle issues like life, abortion, gay marriage, guns, self-defense, morality, terrorism, past associations, and congressional hands that were covered with mortgage blood.
I’m still not convinced he wasn’t trying to lose.
You could be right. McPain lived for the day that he could join the Willkie-Dewey-Ford-Dole list.
