Even more pathetic----the time McC actually berated a supporter on broadcast TV, b/c she dared to bring up O's citizenship. McC then DEFENDED Obama to a Repub crowd.
Maybe McC voted for Obama?
McC kept flaunting his RINO-itis....stooping to appear with known RINOS. Seeing him with one of the biggest losers--RINO Giuliani--cost McC many votes.
The most unforgiveable was McC gluing himself to the pukeneos. The Everything-For-Us-Nothing-For-You pukeneo crowd took over McC's campaign---what's even more disturbing is that McC allowed this to happen. Conservatives were incensed that McCain allowed himself to be duped by conservative-hating pukeneos (as did Bush).
MOST NAUSEATING ELECTION NIGHT SCENE Smirking little Fox pundit Billy Kristol, McC's campaign advisor---putting on his old reliable "Pukeneos Know Nothing About This Republican Disaster" act.
The pukes are a tiny powerful group of conservative-haters, obsessed with religious cleansing of the Repub Party. The puke game was to have McC look like a borderline liberal, a sap-happy "bi-partisan" candidate.
Nice game.....if you don't mind losing.

Krauthammer had a tingle down his leg too.
We need to be careful about taking the current political conditions and applying it to “What if McCain...” . Most of the political backlash against Obama and democrats is because McCain lost. If McCain had won you would be seeing republicans really attacking one another as he cut deals with democrats and as republicans were blamed for coming years of unemployment and deficits. You would see protests against republicans for shipping our jobs overseas.
Remember back about 14 months ago when McCain suspended his campaign to get TARP1 passed? Remember a few brave house republicans (and a few liberals) holding out against the MSM, GWB, democrat party, by holding up TARP1? And what does McCain do?? Does he show leadership and bravery and act like a real Maverick?? No! Like the cowardly rat he was he snuck in and voted FOR TARP1 without even giving a speech one way or the other. At the same time Obama also voted for TARP1 and gave a speech about how this is proof that Republicans/Bush economy failed. Then McCain complained about TARP1 campaigning (FNC Cavuto called him out on this.)
Imagine if McCain separated himself from Bush and Obama and pointed out how they were the same, Socialists, big government big debt corporatists. Imagine if he had a spine.
November 2008 was NOT about Obama, it was about republicans. Let's make sure it doesn't happen again for a LONG time.
McCain may have been right about not changing the Senate rules on filibusters, I am watching this one closely.
I really hated McC as a candidate, but this article does not take into account that one year ago Bush's unpopularity was going to cost McC a lot of votes even if he had not been so kind to Oba Mao.
Lord McCain is like the perpetual playboy, two timing conservatives while sleeping with his mistress the left. I can't wait to hear his explanation for his support of Cap -n- trade. And I fully expect him to start using Sarah's words “DRILL baby DRILL!!! s/
