McCain

I really don't think he could have done much better. I would have preferred Romney, Thompson or Giuliani. I don't any of them would have done any worse. Next time, let's fix the primary system so that Republicans choose the nominee instead of Democrats and independents.

The best thing McCain did was to pick Sarah Palin. She is now the rock star of the party, the speaker everyone will want at their fundraiser for the next 4 years and the frontrunner for 2012 (for what that's worth, which is probably nothing).
