Dead on, baby. At this point in the last cycle everybody thought McCain was finished.
I thought McCain was dead the night of the primaries, but states like ours (Illinois) had so much cross-over voting in open primaries that McCain was elected as our candidate (in this state) by the dems.
Obama will have no primary, so there is a good chance that Romney will become the Republican candidate because of open primary states.
The dems will stop at nothing to pick our candidate for us.
