Well,
It seemed McCain was doing very very well with southern voters. They
(myself included) respected and admired his courage through Vietnam. He had
it made for sure...then he went and told the people of South Carolina they
should take down the Battle Flag. His numbers went into the trashcan
overnight and he never did recover and lost the south and the nomination.
Seems people in the south thought he had as much right to tell South
Carolina what flag to fly on the Statehouse grounds as people in South
Carolina telling Arizona to fly pink underwear on their flagpole. Just did
not go over well.

Refresh my memory?
