Ok I've been watching the primaries since the start in Iowa and I am just baffled as to what the GOP base sees in McCain. Just six months ago this guy was out of money and had to resort to flying commercial. His bumbling rhetoric is just a continuation of the same old Bush garbage (Stay the Course!) and heck even Rush Limbaugh rags on him on a daily basis. And like I'm really impressed by the fact that Joe Lieberman stands behind him as his right hand man, trying to pull off some kind of phony across the aisle bipartasianship. Hell, even Hillary could do better than than. I think back to the 2000 election when Bush bumbled his way through the primaries. However, what was different back then, was that Bush did have an electability factor going for him. Whether you liked him or not you could tell right from the get go that this guy was going to give the Democrats a run for their money. McCain on the other hand well... I think it's official. He should be labeled the GOP version of Mike Dukakis. You might as well put this guy in a tank, put a goofy looking helmet on him and parade him around the farm. Stick a fork in him, he's done- or maybe he's already played out this tactic when he took a stroll through Baghdad talking about how safe it was while being flanked by several hundred Marines and special forces. Anyways, to all you out there looking to see a Democrat elected back into the White House, McCain is your perfect opponent.
