It's a 10PM on Tuesday night as I write this post. Fox News has called Ohio, Iowa and Pennsylvania for the Democratic candidate, thus apparently sealing McCain's fate as the loser in the Presidential contest. Even sources in McCain's campaign now admit there is 'no longer a path' to victory for their candidate.
A few days ago, I caught former Secretary of State Larry Eagleburger on Fox News.
With remarkable candor, Eagleburger declared that if the country were to vote the freshman Illinois Senator into office as President, it was electing a "a con man."
So true.
Only last night, I talked with an acquaintance who is a local Republican office holder at the town council level, and a minority. He clearly broke ranks and voted for the Illinois Senator, and, separately, assured me that, if elected, he would govern from the center.
Imagine all the radical left Democrats who will be conned if this is true.
Then again, the rookie Senator's move to the center conned many independents who will be angry if he shows his true liberal stripes and governs with Frisco Nan and Harry Reid.
Either way, the Democrats have offered us an inexperienced, unaccomplished con man for our nation's highest office.
Something we will all come to regret.

I doubt any Republican could have won in those conditions. Terrible economy, two unpopular wars, last president extremely disliked. I think McCain did all he could do.
Well, I think it's amazing McCain got as close as he did, given his ineptly-run campaign.
Honestly? I think Giuliani for sure, and maybe Romney, could have handled the Illinois freshman. Far better than McCain.
It's a testament to the shallowness of the Democrat's support that it was so close, given the advantages you mention.
In fact, you desribe Humphrey's struggle against Nixon.
Did you know that only 40 US counties switching their results to McCain would have changed the election?
This was far closer than the Dems have us believing.
