How unhappy are the Republicans with their candidate? Only 12% are extremely satisfied with McCain. Obama gets 42%. 28% are not very satisfied and 15% are not satisfied at all. Not good numbers! But I knew this would be the case when he won the nomination. I knew he wouldn't be able to bring the party together. He better hope he can swing enough Hillary supporters and Independents to make up the difference.
I just don't see how a candidate wins with numbers like these

McCain is a total political opportunist. The latest but far from only example is his absurd attempt to bill himself as an environmentalist on the very same day that he came out in favor of offshore drilling for oil (which most critics say would make almost no difference in the price).
He might have had some principles once upon a time, but they've held up about as well as the elastic in his shorts.
And ZZ, it ain't the Dems who had lobotomies; it's guys like you who voted twice for George W. Bush, the Worst President in History. Tell me how you have any credibility left.
I like John McCain, and I agree with his basic position on Iraq, but I worry that he may have too much of a reckless and impulsive streak to be reliable as President. It's going to be very hard for me to vote for either McCain or Obama this fall. I am still considering "writing in" Hillary.
I am going to write in Hillary even if I have to paint it in white out over the screen of the computerized voting machine.
Depends on the state, I think, if they have a 'write in' area.
I think the amazing thing is how well McCain is doing dispite the lack of enthusiasium and with 75% of americans unhappy with the current direction that the country is going in.
I'd expect it to be 60/40 by now but its not. The country is still pretty polarized around 45(D)/45(R)/10(don't know).
