I really belive that. His last speech in Arizona the night before Elections you could tell He knew something. When He turned and walked from Podium there was regret on his countenance. I Belive it happened when He suspended campaign to meet in Washington.
I believe someone got to him on 15 September 2008, when he went back to DC for that emergency meeting with Congress. He hadn’t already decided to throw the election before, this was when it happened.
For whatever reasons, he gave us zero. He had more than enough ammo to stop this from happening, he could have done the job that the LSM refused to do as part of his campaign.
