"...is this the best we can all do?"
No, the republican party could have done much better than McCain, and you guys know it. Remember how the right wing pundits waged a campaign AGAINST McCain in the primary? Didn't mAnn Coulter say she was going to vote for Hillary over McCain. Didn't Rush Limbaugh say a McCain candidacy would be the unraveling of the republican party? I gotta give it to him on that one, I think that is the first accurate statement I have heard from that blowhards mouth...
