Ten Things McCain Should Have Done Differently

[pr0phet]

Very well summarized. I think you can add to the end of #1 the fact that the New England region is now all Democrat in the house as well... It was bound to happen no matter who was there.

Id also like to add the mark that not everybody wants to be John McCains friend :)

Yes, John McCain shouldn't have called me his friend. :)

But I agree that is a nice summary. Especially numbers 1 through 5 did him in the worst.

Agreed. And Fred Thompson was another interesting candidate, but some people probably didn't take him seriously enough because he was an actor. I know Reagan was too, but he was much more nationally known, and having people more familiar with you and your stances can help candidates a lot.

People didn't take Fred seriously enough because Fred didn't take his candidacy serious enough.

He was 3rd in the poles before he even declared his intentions to run. I'm convinced that he got in the thick of the race and realize he didn't want the job.
