23. I don't think you will see the fundies..
mobilize for McCain like they did for Bush. Remember, they're disillusioned too. They thought that there would be a law forcing each and every American to pray before Jesus by now. We're close, but no cigar. McCain just doesn't have a lot more to offer them. Unlike Bush, the repub base is just not motivated for him. Limbaugh and the other right wing loonies have been trashing him for months.

McCain doesn't have a message of hope for the middle or lower classes. He basically says sorry you're screwed so deal with it. I just don't see him as all that formidable right now. A smartly run campaign by the Dems could easily take him. Granted, that's far from a given.
