It was strange how McCain ended up as the Repubnik candidate.

The MSM pushed McCain from day one. Without that help, with a different Republican, Fauxbama would be history. Probably.

Bingo. Romney wasn't my first choice, but have you ever thought how things might have worked out differently, if he had been the GOP candidate when the economy started going south?

But don’t forget, they also pushed Obama. And the DNC - OMG. Remember, Hillary led in popular votes (she won the most primary votes in history in any dem primary)and delegates, until they took some from her and gave them to him at the RBC meeting. Then the DNC broke their own rules in the convention to avoid a fair vote so that he could win. So the manipulation was all over this election, not just in reference to McCain. And with redistricting shenanigans, and the predictable upcoming census shenanigans - uggghh Can you tell I’m totally disgusted with these people?

yes, the MSM had a lot to do with it, so did the fact that the Republicans have open primaries.

How many Obama supporters do you think voted in Republican primaries to skew the results and get us McCain?
