The poll you site is from Nov of last year.

Correct.
Rasmussen has had only 2 polls. One with JD within 2 points of McCain, and the other(from January), with McCain ahead by 22 points. The point is, JD hadn't even entered the race yet when the January survey was done. Plus that poll had Simcox with 4%. He's since withdrawn and thrown his weight behind JD. Lets see what the next poll says with both JD and McCain campaigning instead of just McCain doing the campaigning shall we?

McCain has $27 million cash on hand”

Not according to the Senate Guru. According to him, McCain had $5,681,155 at at the end of September 2009, so unless McCain has managed to raise to the tune of over 20 million in just 5 months, your figures are incorrect.

In 2004 McCain spent a little under $5 million to win with 77% of the vote. “

This is not 2004. The political climate has totally changed. Just go ask Martha Coakley in Massachusetts.
Congressmen who promote job destroying cap and trade, amnesty, Geneva rights for Guantanamo terrorists like McCain, are out of favor everywhere.

If JD is stalled and the media release a fake poll showing JD gaining ground there is still no reason for McCain to release the real numbers and warn JD to change tactics”

Rasmussen don't do fake polls. If there is movement in the polls, we will see that in the polls in the coming months.

JD raised $100,000 in the last week...at $100,000 a week JD would have about $2 million raised by election day. “

Martha Coakley initially had a heck of a lot more money in the bank than Brown did, and he was ahead by 20 pints with just over a month to go to the polls. In the end, it didn't matter. Coakley was on the wrong side of the issues and the wrong side of history, just like McCain is on the wrong side of the issues right now. McCain needs to be retired, so he can go plant tomatoes in his back garden. He has done too much damage to conservatives in this country in the last 8 years already.

$27 million cash on hand John McCain: Campaign Finance/Money - Summary - Senator 2010 | OpenSecrets

You're entitled to the rest of your opinions, but I would find them more compelling if you didn't use Liberals’ Five Favorite Republicans RINO Brown as an argument for disgust with RINO McCain.

I wouldn't have a problem with JD as AZ Senator, but it ain't gonna happen. Resources should be spent in states we can take from the rats.
