McCains mom is still alive. She is in her 90's. |

Okay, lemme fine-tune it for ya here. McCain is a politician, conducting a campaign incompetently. Yes, to some extent, all politicians just play the hand that theyre dealt. But McCain has played this hand particularly badly, and many of the things that have gone wrong have been the direct result of decisions he made. Exhibit A, Sarah Palin. Contra Kuros, I do think that this will be analyzed by future politican historians as an incredibly bad decision by McCain. There surely MUST have been another Religious Right-friendly candidate with more crossover appeal to the mainstream. |
