That dumb off-the-cuff comment about 100 years in Iraq -- totally misinterpreted by the press and one that even I, a Democrat Party official could defend -- will be his downfall. And then there is going to be the Keating Five thing. McCain was probably blameless (we shall never know) but there will be some non-Party PAC ads that he will have to defend, taking him off-message.
Now, if McCain can convince voters that he is more Dem the Rep, that might be his ace in the hole and could win him the election. That could shake off some of the Bush baggage that he will have to carry during the election cycle. As for the Libertarian candidate, I am pretty close to jumping to them from time to time. Still have the Party card in my wallet (I even paid them some $$$ a while back). If they were viable in the election it would be one thing. But since they aren't I need to go with someone who has a chance of winning. This election, there will be an Obama sign in my yard.
