I guess nobody saw THIS set of circumstances coming.
Ted, dead man walking, steps on the stage and gets tremendous cheering from all sides, as he goes for the Last Hurrah. He endorses the nominee, just like he always had been in full support. But at a deeper level, he is wary of the potential disaster that awaits the Democrat party as a whole. On this one, the Democrats have bet the farm, already heavily mortgaged, and are hoping for a miracle.
If McCain can produce even the feeblest degree of “coattail effect”, the Democrats may not get the huge margins they had hoped for in the House and Senate.
If they hammer 9% Nancy and every other RAT on the price of oil and their refusal to let us drill for it domestically, we could see a repeat of 1994. (Nobody saw that one coming either)
