McCain has the best change among Republicans, but he will not get one Democratic or undecided vote because he's a coot the likes of which even Grampa Simpson can't compete with. "Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran"? Jesus christ, I've got an idea! Let's elect Strom Thurmond! Or wait, even better, let's elect Rummy! But seriously, we'll end up with 2000 and 2004 all over again, with like 2 votes and a supreme court deciding things when McCain is chosen.
Romey? He'd lose so hard he'd make Dole look like Reagan. He'd get like 24% of the votes. It'd be a joke, and then the Republican party would look weak and all of the Republican voters would leave for centrist's-ville. The Dems would take the House and Senate as the GOP tried to recuperate, and they would usher in a golden age of not spending more than we have. So yeah, please let Romney run.
