My take on why McCain lost were seven words:
Quote:

The fundamentals of the economy are strong.

As to why I voted for Obama, one of the reasons was this game. As I played SH4 and listened to FDR's fireside chats in the depths of 1942, I was struck by the similarities between his speeches and Barack's. I could find no such comparisons with Mccain's speeches. In every speech and every debate I watched, Obama made one word stand out in my mind:
Statesman
He won because he acted like a statesman. His choices of advisors have also shown the care and thought he has put into this race. McCain was unfocused and all over the map. For me, the final straw was suspending his campaign to go sit like a bump on a log during the big meeting with Bush,Paulson et all. While Barack offered ideas and strategies, McCain said nothing.
