I've said this here before, JoeSchmoe. But I think McCain subconsciously wanted to lose in 2008. If he picked Romney back then, they might be looking at their second term coming up. Then again, maybe not. But he would have had at least a fighting chance without that pinhead Palin.


I don't think he could have won no matter who he picked. It was a perfect storm for Obama with the country trying to rebound from 8 years of Bush. The Democrats could have ran just about anyone, and they probably would have won.
