I think McCain is being set up by the RNC to lose, by the RNC. Given all the negatives facing repubs this cycle, why should they go all out just to lose? Besides, I get the idea the RNC knows someone is going to have to take the blame for the consequences of the bush presidency and I get the feeling the RNC won't mind if that person is a democrat. A black democrat or a female democrat would just make it better.
Think about it. the repub field of main contenders were Giuliani and Mitt. I mean these two are practically dems. Huck is so religious as to be terminally alienating in the general election and Ron Paul, despite being the best candidate of the bunch is still a lunatic. So that leaves McCain, the horribly compromised old coot from 2000, who is old enough that losing wont be a big deal cause he probably won't be around long enough to bother anyone about it. The RNC did not offer up any leading lights of the Republican Conservative movement. (whatever that is)
Also think about how Limbaugh and Hannity are allowed to follow their own leads instead of taking their usual marching orders from the RNC.
McCain is the RNC's sacrifice.
