McCain lost by 10 million--- Romney by 5 million

this is probably why McCain is so angry right now-----he looks at his service record in the political spectrum, dwarfing Romney's---and also looks at his other credentials and is astounded by his loss being so much greater

Many who voted for Romney didn't bother voting for McLame because they thought a black man would never win. Clearly, they figured differently in 2012. Also, the President probably didn't attract quite the novelty vote in 2012 that he did in 2008.

Oh, well, suck it up, Gramps. You're still better off than you were in the Hanoi Hilton.

W. won (stole the election) by a little over 3 million in '04 and he had a "mandate" that every Con bowed down to.
Go figure.

He managed to make it as far as he did because of his legacy despite all of the mistakes he made.
