With all possible respect, that is ridiculous.
McLame lost because first, four years prior, he was threatening to jump sides to Democrat. Second, despite his platitudes on Pro-life, he was a flip-flopper on embryonic stem cell research. Third, he was for open borders. Fourth, he refused to be aggressive against Obama. Fifth, he said he was willing to raise taxes. Sixth, he was tied, even loosely to Keating. Seventh, he displayed hints of dementia. Eighth, more than once, he told conservatives to go screw themselves. Ninth, he was a major obstructor of the conservative actions Bush wanted to take when Bush first got into office because he wanted some of the glory and got upset when he was left out...and also he was sore that he got his head handed to him in the 2000 primaries.
