In terms of actual electoral damage, McCain's age.  His image was nothing compared to the one Obama was able to create and age had a lot to do with that.  That affected his entire campaign.  In real terms, Obama's race was a much more damaging aspect.  But it didn't translate into electoral loss as he was most damaged locally in places he wasn't going to win, and didn't need to win, anyway.
