Why the press can pick our candidate? A lazy, uninformed electorate.
I disagree. McCain was our candidate because of the primaries. Why? Because the socons went for Huckabee. The fiscal cons didn't like Huckabee so they went with Romney. The paleocons didn't like Romney or Huckabee so they went with Hunter. Oh yea, and there was some old guy named Thompson--a McCain supporter--who ran for a few months, just long enough to give McCain an edge over Huckabee.
In short, none of our choices, except maybe Hunter, were any good. And Hunter never got any support from anyone. No matter what choice we ended up with, it would have been a loser. You can't blame the media for that.
And by the way, nothing's changed. The GOP is devoid of leadership, and devoid of credibility.
Why John McCain was our candidate? The press.
Exactly! John McCain was chosen as the GOP candidate by the MSM a long time ago.
