More votes than McCain - who can get them, who did - before he gets lionized too much

[robbedvoter]

I recall very well that in NH our turnout far surpassed the GOP's.
Not only did Hillary get more votes than him, but so did Obama
In Michigan he lost to Mitt.
In Nevada - Ron Paul got more votes than him (so, it's a far gone conclusion, both Hillary and Obama did too.
I will just speculate that in SC again, given the turnout difference, the nail biter win McCain got - very likely more than one our candidates (if not all of them) got more votes then McCain. I will research this)

It's been already said that Hillary got more votes than him in Florida -which considering the problems our primary did compared to theirs is remarkable.

I posted all this to illustrate this truth: any of ours beats any of theirs - in a clean election.

5. Are you sure? One of our candidates has had the full bore of MSM on her from day one

Still, you do have a point - McCain has been ridiculed by MSM - and that ended yesterday. Beatification officially started last night.
You know what? It still won't bring more GOP-ers to the poll for the guy who wants permanent war.

6. believe me, she's had it bad

but it's been nowhere NEAR "full-bore" - they will come down on her the likes of which we have never seen if she is nominated. She (or Obama) needs to be assembling a quick, hard-hitting TRUTH SQUAD pronto.

As for the war mongerers, every repuke I know is pro-war and convinced that even though repukes didn't give a shit about brown people in New Orleans, they are soooooo dedicated to giving democracy to them brown folk in the Middle East.

7. Oh, it can always get worse, I agree. But with the Clintons, there's a "bashing-fatigue"

that settled in back in the 90s. meaning - people rally around them when things get over the top. Ot's the "fatigue" MSM won't tell you about.

8. Kick for perspective - as Mccain worship sweeps the DU again
