Only because of Sarah Palin. I voted for her not the old RINO warhorse. Had he not been on the ticket, we may have even gave Obama a run for his money.
McCain blew his own chances by supporting the bailouts. When he suspended his campaign and rushed back to DC, he had an incredible opportunity to not only defend the constitution and American freedom by doing the right thing, but also to differentiate himself from both Bush and Obama. But going for the bailouts just placed the blame for the financial meltdown squarely at Bush’s and his own GOP feet and made it that much easier for Obama to waltz in. Incredibly stupid of Bush and McCain and all the turncoat RINOs who voted for the socialist coup d’etat.
I didnt bother, I voted for chuck baldwin, and no it wasn't a vote for Obama, Mccain actually won my state. of course the republican representitive I voted for didnt win.
