The MS GOP ran ads of Rev. Wright. Didn’t do much good did it? Today on Rasmussen, Dems are trusted more than the GOP on the top ten issues from the economy to healthcare to the environment. The generic Republican is toxic. The public, apparently, wants to poke conservatives in the eyes. Perhaps that is why McCain is competitive with Obama and Hillary, while the other GOP candidates have no chance. McCain is not your typical Republican.
I think you are right...moderate McCain has a chance to beat B.H. Obama. (Only a chance...maybe not even a good chance...but a chance).
Sadly, Huckabee, Romney, F. Thompson, Brownback, or whoever would be blown out by Obama.
That is how toxic the Republican brand label has become. Bush has ran the party into the ground, worst than Clinton did to the Democrats in 1994.
“The generic Republican is toxic. The public, apparently, wants to poke conservatives in the eyes. Perhaps that is why McCain is competitive with Obama and Hillary, while the other GOP candidates have no chance. McCain is not your typical Republican.”
That just about sums it up perfectly...
