McCain for rolling over like a dead dog to Obama.

Anybody else would have been literally destroyed by Obama. Particulary an ultraconservative as you seem liking him.

That's merely opinion for historians to discuss. If we had a real conservative candidate who would have called Obama out on certain issues which came up, things may have changed. McCain was killed by his kindness.

I don't know, the field last year was pretty weak. I think out of all of the candidates the GOP offered only Romney might have done better. But he still had the mormon and flip flopping obstacles to overcome so probably not even then.

Anyway, going by competence:

Primaries: Giuliani, followed by Lieberman. Absolutely embarrassing.
General: Dukakis. Even he admits it was a disaster.
