It is just speculation and/or opinion but I'm not sure that McCain and anyone could have beaten the Democratic candidate....I'm a long time Republican and I respect John McCain...that being said I had serious concerns with he being the Republican nominee....I seriously doubt that the number of Republicans that stayed home really had much to do with Palin being on the Ticket....imho Palin is not the reason the republicans lost....Bush's unpopularity, and McCains age and support of Bush policies had imho way more to do with the outcome.
