The sad truth is, registered Republicans didn't let him become the nominee. Crossover voters in the front-loaded key primary states "crossed the aisle" to vote for this POS. It was all over before it even began.
Until the GOP gets things changes in the states, limiting primary participation to registered Republicans, this will keep happening again and again.
Why, this isn’t a reference to Florida 2008, now is it?
They picked BOTH nominees, and they will next time, unless the GOP restructures.
You are correct. Registered Republicans did not vote McCain into nomination. Independents and Democrats did.
