Let me tell you somethin'. McCain did NOT run a "travesty of a campaign." I take it you did not work on the campaign as some of us did.
Barry Obama had 3 times as much money to spend and 4 times as many workers in the field as McCain did. McCain did hang back pre-convention, but once Sarah Palin was nominated and the convention was complete, he came alive and campaigned as passionately as he ever has. It was full steam ahead. And I am saying this as someone who has some serious criticisms of him politically.
But I am tired of seeing the internet princesses whining about the campaign, which was the best it could be given the resources available. Not perfect enough for a princess, but good enough for the solid core of Republicans to come out and vote for him.
Most to blame ARE the idiots who voted for BHO, and the reality that he had ONE BILLION DOLLARS to spend.
Try actually WORKING on a campaign and then tell me what a travesty is.
