Did anyone think John McCain would win?

Im french and i supported obama (i didnt vote for him tho cus im not american) but my theory was that mccain wud win becus the world want obama to win, but america wanted obama. But it was americas vote so i thought john would win.

what u think?

No. Nobody did. Not one single person. :|

I hope not.

I must say I that I did have hope that McCain would win. I thought there were still enough inteligent, hardworking people left in this country to prevent the evil that is in the white house now.

After the close of the conventions, yes. By the time November arrived, no.

I actually thought he would win even though it was Obama mania the whole time.

Once you hit mid October it was a forgone conclusion (although you could say once the economy started to crap out it was over too). Most of the swing states were leaning Obama's way and even traditionally republican states were leaning Obama's way and he was campaigning there. You're just never going to be weak on your home turf like that, win them all, and enough of the swing states.... let alone that McCain went all negative for a good five weeks.

i hoped he would win but it was obvious by october he would not

on november fifth i was thinking

"well we had a good run america maybe socialism ai'nt so bad":?

I never thought he'd win.

Realistically, the campaign was over post-Katrina. The Democrats could have run a quadraplegic, brain-dead monkey with anthrax against any Republican candidate and won; it was just in the cards.

hoped he would, but didn't really expect it.

.

not really, if he picked a better candidate for vice president, he would have a little more of a chance to win. But Obama still would have won anyway...M-E-S-S

To be honest, I didn't think he would win.

I can't see how anyone could think he would win. McCain/Palin's campaign was absolutely atrocious..

It was possible, but improbable. I'd say any Republican candidate would have been screwed.fidosim

Right, statistically there is a switch in political party control when there is a recession.

McCain did win. He killed Obama, put on an Obama mask and is sitting in the White House even as we speak, cackling over the success of his nefarious Republican plans.

I did when Obama and Hil-dog were bashing each other. I thought Clinton's supporters would switch to McCain while the Republican's stayed united.

I honestly thought America would pull more for McCain because of his exemplary military service, McCain could of won if only he was a few years younger

lol no I didnt think any republican could have won that election. Jesus could have run for president as a republican and would have lost that one.

I think that McCain sank his ship when he signed on Palin as he VP running mate. I knew he wouldn't win after I saw her first interview.

Eh, the question wasn't who wanted him to win, it was who thought he would win.
