“He only won enough primaries because the elite that runs the party anointed him as a candidate and then the leftist press, realizing that he was the worst candidate, worked to get him selected.”

I didn’t vote for John McCain, we’ve covered that. I am not going to apologize for my non-vote, it was my right but your reasoning suggests that the “elite” and the press equal millions and millions of people. They ALL voted for McCain? Come on, the voters must share some of the blame.

“your reasoning suggests that the “elite” and the press equal millions and millions of people.”

In what sense do I suggest that they are “equal?” There is no theoretical upper limit on the number of people who can be misled by sophistry.

“They ALL voted for McCain?”

Of course not. The GOP elite may have voted for McLame, but the media voted almost monolithically for Kamarad Maobama.

“Come on, the voters must share some of the blame.”

How much? How much blame accrues to a person when he is deceived by very skillful liars?
