Has Anyone Seen Someone Excited About McCain?
From my perspective, the GOP is split on their nominee into groups of people who are unexcited by him and those that can't stand his guts. Even as a potential President with enormous power, he hasn't been able to gather any money from people wanting an inside track to the White House. The GOP may pretend that they are excited about going up against Obama, but they know that he will only make McCain seem older, more boring and more like George W. Bush.

We have huge turnout, a huge small donor base, and people very excited for change. Is there anyone out there that has seen someone even a fraction as excited about McCain?

1. I live in one of the reddest counties in the country--and, even here, there is no
excitement (actually, I am trying to remember if I have even seen a mclame bumper sticker)

of course, the repukes around here have their hands full with dougie bruce.

4. McCain and excitement?
He ranks slightly above Mitch McConnell for the most boring Senator. He comes off as someone giving a commencement speech on a subject that he would rather not talk about.
