Gingrich for all his problematical aspects still did some good work in congress and certainly presented his positions and viewpoints far better than mcCain usually does.

yes, Gingrich would have been a far better nominee than McCain.

McCain was, I believe, put on the ballot to Throw the election.

Tell me Im wrong...?

“McCain was, I believe, put on the ballot to Throw the election.

Tell me Im wrong...?”

Yes, but by whom? It was the old media that got McCain on the Republican ballot, because they figured he would be easy to beat. McCain, on the campaign, even referred to the media as “my base”. Once he won the primary, they turned on him. We are living in a mediacracy.

Allowing the old media to “moderate” the Republican primary debates, and thus chose the Republican candidates is insane.

This article (mostly the headline) is just media spin to dump on both Fiorina and Palin.

You’re right, on both counts.

I still remember the photo of the thug Obama with the old, short & pathetic McCain backed into a corner, and believe that’s when he was told he better throw it. Similar to the photo of Obama bullying Joe Leiberman the same year.

I raised a houseful of (now)middle-aged sons. I can read photos. It was soon after that McCringe told us not to fear an Obama presidency. If he was only disgusting before that, he was abhorrent after.
