1. John McCain will be the scapegoat...

the story will be he wasn't conservative enough.... Sarah Palin will be held up as the new standard bearer for the Repukes.

7. That's exactly what I'm afraid of!

9. Don't be afraid. It will sink them further. n/t

8. I agree -- McCain.

They will say he was too centrists. Well, at least a bunch of them will. But, that's fine with me -- they can go crazy far to the right and even dominate Palin. Then, they can kiss any political power they might want good-bye.

2. Demoncrats!!!

10. This is my answer for 'Other' as well.

Anyone else but themselves.

4. the downturn of the economy

they're already arguing that that's the reason McCain's not leading in the polls--as if that were the only reason for Obama's nation-wide grassroots support. They should blame themselves and the last eight years....

6. "They should blame themselves and the last eight years" But, of course they won't! n/t

[UTUSN]

11. It ought to be SHRUB, but he has never been held accountable for anything!1 n/t

12. The Bush-Rove machine will blame McCain for not sticking with Bush - the way the

Clinton machine blamed Gore for 'distancing himself' from Clinton. Same thing in 2004 - no election fraud or undermining of the candidate by powerful Dems - nope, just all Kerry's fault.

Bush machine will attempt to put all blame on McCain. They won't be able to do that successfully - we all KNOW so much more now.
