Sarah Palin's exit interview: 'An economic woeful time in this nation' beat her ticket

I know that I have commented on this idiocy before, but another thing has stuck out to me. Why is the fact that there was an economic problem mean that the repugs had to lose the election? Why didn't they provide leadership and a solution? Why wasn't this bad for the Dems?

It wasn't the economic crisis that was their problem - it was their reaction to it. If McCain had actually done something rather than simply claim to suspend his campaign while not actually doing so and bitch about Obama "calling it in" while McCain literally did that and if he hadn't been so far off regarding the principles of the economy, then he wouldn't have had a problem, would he?

Obama won on this issue because of his response to this issue. No one made McCain look foolish on this other than McCain.

The people want a president who can handle a crisis, not fold underneath a crisis.
