It's hard to believe how badly the McCain campaign is being run.

[saltpoint]

I'm sure it's impossible for McCain to believe how strongly expert the Obama campaign is.

Brit Hume must really be pissed.

1. Baboons could have done a better job

but with crazy, bitter old Grampy at the top of the ticket there's a limit on what can be done.

[iceman66]

5. Remember McCain was once very well liked, even by a lot of Democrats

He would have been much better served with a Reagan-style 'Morning in America' campaign rather than a Rovian hatefest.

Oh well, too late for that now!

8. Hell, I liked McCain in 2000

Not that I'd have voted for him over Al Gore, but then he seemed like a breath of fresh air in Repuke circles. Who this lying, cringing, craven, unprincipled and racist goon calling himself "John McCain" is now, I don't even recognize. Ambition does terrible things to people and it has completely eaten his soul. Bye Grampy. Back to Sun City where you can count Cindy's beer money. Until she dumps you. You'll have nightmares for years about that scary Negro that whooped your ass for the Presidency,

12. A lot of people liked McCain in 2000

but since then he has literally sold his soul to the worst elements within the Republican party, and it shows.

2. The books should be

never ending on the analysis of what the Obama Team did right and how exactly the wheels came off the Express to Nowhere.

[saltpoint]

3. Hi, zidzi. Yep. I agree -- Obama's team has been

dazzling.

McCain's team ... eh, not so much!

[FKA MNChimpH8R]

10. Plouffe and Axelrod have rewritten the book

on running for the presidency. They also happened to be working for the best candidate in generations. The Davids always seem to have been four or five moves ahead of the opposition for the last year and to have gamed and planned for every possible situation. Best strategists ever.

[Cha]

17. The Davids and all their internet

savvy team that made it possible to run a large corporation successfully!

It's been a Perfect Storm for those coming together for the Obama Team.

We even have Patti Solis Doyle as Joe Biden's Chief of Staff..which I can't wait to get the inside scoop on that:)

[iceman66]

4. Well look who they have running it

Rick Davis is a lobbyist, not a political strategist. Steve Schmidt is a loudmouth bully who doesn't even have a college degree.

At this point, the Republicans would be better off if they could swap out McCain/Palin for a Romney/Huckabee ticket and stop campaigning altogether.

[saltpoint]

14. Yep. Buyers' remorse must be gipping the Puke voters coast to coast.

I hope our totals are by such substantial margins that the win forces a realignment of the GOP. It's been a long time comin'.

[Jennicut]

6. I have not seen such a zigzag campaign as the one that McInsane has run

He has been all over the freakin place...the Zigzag express. I have gotten dizzy just trying to keep up. Hard to win a race when you can't decide what the theme (experience, reformer/maverick, Reaganite) should be. Plus, McLame's personality turned out to be so nasty and grumpy he made Bob Dole look likable and Kerry and Gore seem extremely exciting.

[saltpoint]

7. It really has been all over the charts.

And with no definitional theme at all.

Just a horrible performance by a national political figure.

[msallied]

9. This is why it will ultimately fail.

I think the meme of "Erratic John McCain" is being imprinted on people's minds more than anything. The drama, the bizarre "campaign suspending" antics, and the troll-like behavior during the debates... the Sarah Palin. It is like a salacious soap opera. People look at Obama and even if they don't see what the rest of us see, they see control, sanity, and the potential for great wisdom. They see a leader.

[saltpoint]

11. Yes. This past week or so the media have finally begun to be

more generous in their praise of Obama's personal steadfastness and cool brow.

McCain has thrashed around and is presiding over some of the vilest crap I've ever seen undertaken in a political campaign.

John the maverick is on permanent fade.

[morillon]

13. I think these were the best he could do.

Republicans with any kind of future are staying the hell away from this campaign.

[saltpoint]

16. Agree. The indicators came pretty early, too, when so many big-name

Republicans had "scheduling conflicts" the week of the St. Paul convention and doggone it, just couldn't seem to fit it into their schedules...

[WheelWalker]

15. THIS is Manifest Destiny!
