Unfortunately, it’s too late for your scenario in 2008, as Republicans have already passed the torch to McCain, who does not appear to believe in aspiring to conservative principles with any appreciable conviction. McCain is a weak candidate who needs a weaker candidate in order to win. Every now and then I indulge the fantasy that there might be some way for McCain, Obama, and Clinton all to lose, but actually I realize all too well that it’s already too late for mainstream conservatism with McCain being the Republican standard-bearer in the 2008 presidential election.
