The MSM portrayed McCain as the strongest Rep candidate against Obama using polls. It was a meme that McCain used to get the nomination. McCain got the nomination with only 33% of the primary vote.
I remember it painfully well.
What I’m saying is that he didn’t put up ANY fight. And when conservatives came to his defense against attacks from O and the dem media allies, McCain himself went ballistic about it, accusing us of being racists, etc.
His treatment and lack of defense of Sarah Palin was reprehensible.
He was prepared to lose before he even got the nomination.
We got played.
