You can thank Senator McCain and that travesty of a campaign he ran for hussein's victory, not voters. 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.

No, I was too busy busting my ass on active duty to make sure you had the option.

Gee, now why is that? Could it be that Senator McCain's democrat-lite record was less than inspiring to many Republican "base" voters? Think that could have something to do with it?
McCain did hang back pre-convention
No, he didn't. He acted like a damned democrat and managed to anger damn near everyone he needed to get out the vote.
but once Sarah Palin was nominated and the convention was complete, he came alive and campaigned as passionately as he ever has.
Too little, too late. He was nominated Sarah to unite the base and then locked her away to keep her from angering the jelly-spined "moderates" that didn't come to him anyway. And when his travesty of a campaign failed, as many of us figured it would, they immediately dumped on the only good decision he made: Sarah.
And I am saying this as someone who has some serious criticisms of him politically
But apparently not enough intellectual honesty to see what really happened.
But I am tired of seeing the internet princesses whining about the campaign
Well, at least we agree on something.
which was the best it could be given the resources available
Bullsh!t! Senator McCain was given so many opportunities to hand hussein and biden their asses that it made me glad they are not my daughters. They made it easy and he did nothing.
Not perfect enough for a princess, but good enough for the solid core of Republicans to come out and vote for him.
You call not being able to pull more than 80% solid?
Most to blame ARE the idiots who voted for BHO, and the reality that he had ONE BILLION DOLLARS to spend.
There was so much dirty money in that campaign that all the Tide in the world would not have gotten it clean. Yet another wasted hanging curve ball that Senator McCain could not bring himself to swing at.

I can tell you what a travesty of a campaign is, I watched him botch the damn thing since day one. And that was without even breaking a sweat.

Could that possibly have anything to do with McCain-Feingold? You know, that brilliant piece of legislation.
