When I was a teen and worked as a summer intern on Capitol Hill, there was a fellow intern, Eitan Gorlin, who worked for Jack Kemp. An Orthodox Jew, Eitan was an extremely good-looking guy on his way to becoming a rabbi.
Instead, he became a liberal. Eitan lost his looks, his religion, and his principles (assuming he had any in the first place, didn't know him well, other than "hello" and "good-bye"). He made a disgusting anti-Israel movie--funded by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacques Gorlin--that had a brief, failed run at arthouse movie theaters.
Since his career as a liberal, self-hating Jewish filmmaker didn't work out (Hollywood already has so many of those), Eitan re-invented himself as a fake John McCain campaign advisor, Martin Eisenstadt, of the fictional Harding Institute for Freedom and Democracy, complete with a sort of legitimate looking fake think tank website...Although I never posted about "Martin Eisenstadt" on this site, the reason I was kind of convinced by his act was that he was repeatedly quoted and cited as a McCain advisor all over the press, without the McCain campaign ever disputing that he worked for them. That should tell you something about just how bad the McCain campaign was. But I realized he was a fake when he posted a video claiming that Michelle Malkin and John McCain met and got it on in a back room. Puh-leeze

The McCain campaign made Walter Mondale look like a master strategist. And yet Obama only got 52%. Imagine if Obama had had a real opponent.
IMO, it says more about the GOP and the McCain campaign.
