It seems McCain’s popularity has been steadily worse since his trip to Iraq. There, guarded by a military entourage, McCain distorted the public view of the current state of safety in that country, claiming it was safe to walk into an Iraqi marketplace and buy fruit, when in reality it is not. Now, polls show that his popularity is now lower than ever, even with member of his own party.
He did not attend a convention this past Saturday where Republican parties from all around South Carolina gathered to talk politics and participate in polls. Instead, McCain sent former Oklahoma Gov. Frank Keating in his place. The candidates who were there took part in debates and speeches; it was no surprise that McCain ended in last.
This doesn’t look good for McCain. McCain is a candidate who has no credibility, his involvement in the saving and loan scandal as well as his poor relations with his own party members sets him in a bad position for the Republican presidential nomination. I would be surprised if he survives the primaries.
