McCain & Palin
Minus 5 points for using “perfect storm” in your quote.
How to elect John McCain President in 2008!
It made me
sad 
"John didn't carry the flag correctly for me as a conservative and faced a perfect storm of bad events against him."
How I did it: gave money, called friends, wrote on my blog. I explained to people the difference between the conservative way of solving problems (empower the individual) and the liberal way (empower the government). The election in my mind was about two very different approaches to problem solving. America choose the wrong one in my opinion, but they had good reasons. McCain didn't stand strong for the conservative values that most americans believe in. He should have voted against the wall street bailout. He should have done a better job describing why "spread the wealth" is bad.
Lessons & tips: use the internet more. show more passion. don't compromise your values in the primary.
