We are in a bad economic state. We are mired in two conflicts that seem endless. Our reputation as a "beacon of light" to the world has been tarnished as our international standing is perhaps at its lowest point ever. I think it's hard to make the case that the Dems can screw things up much more.

As for Republicans disliking McCain so much, what gives? The man grew up idolozing Goldwater, who wasn't exactly a flaming liberal. His voting record in the Senate suggests that he is actually among the more conservative Senators. He served in the military and endured torture for 5 years when he could have left his confinement early. So, he's not conservative because he actually thinks for himself and sometimes departs from the party line?
