The Republicans’ first mistake was having primaries on different dates than the Democrats, thereby allowing the RATS to cross over and select the Republican candidate. So...McCain’s first mistake was getting nominated to begin with. After all, he was the favorite Republican candidate of the Democrats...and was their first choice, until they had their own candidate.

Oboma won the presidency as soon as he declared his candidacy. The anti-U.S. U.N. saw a weapon and used it - race.
No one dared offend Oboma in any way. The anti-American world was watching for one racial slip up they could use against us. They had a socialist candidate in the U.S. and they had the race card. The two were unbeatable during a time when the U.S. wasn't especially respected in the world.

Oboma was the right color at the right time, and the left took full advantage of it.
