The amount of closeness still in this race really makes you wonder what would have happened had McCain's campaign been ran right. Rick Davis, Nicole Wallace and others owe Mac an apology. I wonder if sometimes he doesn't regret firing Mike Murphy.

Mike, honestly we can look at this thing and see mistakes and missteps. I yelled at the television in all 3 M/O debates because I had better answers than McCain almost every time.
but the reality as far as i am concerned is, if this set of mistakes were not made, we would be talking about other mistakes.
The mistakes only matter for the loser. But McCain was never going to win. Not without massive mistakes by the democrat.
Obama neither made massive mistakes nor did the media do its job to explore his history.
American Elections are alway referendums on something. This was at first a referendum on George Bush and the Republican party with 60% not happy.
Then it was a referendum on Barak Obama on wheither or not he is capable of holding the job. he has done nothing to suggest he cant.
This election was never about what McCain was or was not doing.
