Who is reponsible for McCain's imminent election loss ?

[Politico]

McCain is ultimately responsible. It's his campaign - he decides who is on the campaign team and surely made a lot of calls on key strategy. He also made the pick of Palin. I kind of feel bad for her because she does seem like a nice person with a good family, but she really never should have been put in this situation in the first place. When it comes to his record, it was his decision to vote with Bush and fellow hardliner Republicans 92% of the time.
