A Blast from the past - this quote from my Kindle book noted above
But McCain was muddle-headed in his primary victory. He assumed he
had to have the support of what has been called the Republican BASE. This was
the stupidest assumption of all. The only way McCain could have won was by
appreciating the similarity between himself and Barack. By kicking the Hannity
BASE in the teeth.
By redefining the base just as Barack redefined the Democratic
base as a 50 state constituency. The election could have come down to a civil
and humorous McCain versus the Barack we know.
