ehhhh even then, mccain still wouldn’t have won tbh. republicans were extremely unpopular in 2008 due to the great recession & the bush era. democrats could’ve ran a potato and won that year

They basically did. Kidding, but Obama was a kid with no experience. Charismatic but had no business being there at that time. That said, McCain had a good following and was popular on both sides, he had earned it and proven to reach across the aisle. War vet. He debated well and had dignity. That’s how bad Palin was. Just a trainwreck that kept getting worse and worse the more she spoke.
