Last summer, no one would have believed that John McCain could win the first GOP primary in the nation. I personally left him for dead months ago, believing that 2008 had no place for a 71 year old senator. Well, I was wrong along with the rest of the world.
I like John McCain. I respect him very much for his service to America. That being said, however, I still have questions about his elect ability in a general election. Does he have a vision for today, or is he just running on ground he lost in 2000? Also, has he lost the “maverick” cross-over appeal that he is famous for? Further, is he a “next in line” candidate, ala’ Bob Dole? I think that GOP voters nationwide need to ask themselves these very questions before they pick him as a nominee.
Nevertheless, kudos to Sen. McCain for winning New Hampshire, and knocking off Mitt Romney. Everyone besides Romney supporters turn their grateful eyes to you.
