People can say what they want; but the nation would be IMMENSELY better with McCain Palin running things; rather than current camper at the White House.

True, although i expect we would be in a couple more foreign wars by now. Certainly one of some sort with Russia.

I'm not so sure. First, understand that Palin would be reduced to attending funerals. McCain is not the sort to delegate power to anybody.

Second, understand that a McCain presidency coupled to a Democrat majority Congress probably would've gotten the 'Rats everything they wanted. A GOP minority with a Republican president in league with the majority would've been totally useless as an opposition party.

Further, McCain is just temperamentally unsuited to the role of President. He's an authoritarian with a bad temper -- and generally worse judgment. What was the last war he urged we stay out of, for example?

He is also the author of McCain-Feingold -- about which he remarked, "Given a choice between free speech and good government, I'll take good government every time". "Good government" as defined by ...whom? And, of course, amnesty is his Holy Grail. The man has no more respect for the Constitution than Obama.

That said, I voted for him. But I felt dirty when I did so. 2008 was a choice between a disaster and a catastrophe.
