How in the hell did we get into this mess!?!?
The National GOP, in conjunction with the MSM and the big dogs in Conservative Talk Radio (especially Limbaugh), failed utterly to support the only two Conservative candidates in the race last fall, Thompson and Hunter.
Just think, if Limbaugh had given both Thompson and Hunter half the mouth time that he does now for Clinton, then we would be sitting pretty. Instead, we get nasty, decrepit McCain.
We (the typical American TV-watcher) were informed that "only the top-tier candidates have a chance".
We (FReepers) buy into that load of crap just like a catfish taking the stinkbait.
We (Patriots) didn't scream bloody murder at the RNC for accepting John McCain as the apparent nominee.
That's pretty much it in a nutshell.
