Can McCain defeat Obama?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Back when McCain was the frontrunner, he didn't poll so hot in the GE. That's because he was getting bashed nonstop over Iraq. Now he does better since he isn't getting thrashed.

Nominate him, and he'll get thrashed again, and his numbers will sink like a stone. I remember when Democrats here considered him less of a threat than Romney or Thompson. That's amusing in retrospect (Thompson being a stronger candidate than McCain is the type of thing that makes you want to burst out laughing now), but still shows more evidence toward the above theory.

People like McCain because he was hurt or something in Vietnam.

Feed the troll, folks!  Then complain about it.  Then feed it some more.

Listen to HardR folks, he's actually got a point for once.
