This is a good example of why McCain lost the election. Again.....I do not believe that the Republican Party wanted the White House during these times. They turned Americans over to the socialists.
Our primaries were flawed. Democrats and Indies had a vote, and Conservatives split up their vote on 5 candidates.
I agree. Since 1994, I've repeatedly had the impression that the Republicans in Congress uncomfortable with being in power. They were like the Israelites during the Exodus, complaining about how much better slavery to the Egyptians was. The Republicans would much rather give responsibility (and power) back the Democrats - and since 2006, they've gotten their wish.
Shades of Jefferson in 1796? I wouldn’t give them that much credit.
