| Description | The votes have not yet even been cast, let alone counted, yet, many worried Republicans are fearful that Nov. 4 will bring not just the defeat of John McCain, but the veritable death of the Republican Party as they know it.
Republicans are bracing for the possibility of a crippling loss come Election Day, in which they would both relinquish the White House and allow Democrats to maintain their control of Congress.
McCain could pull off a come-from-behind victory next Tuesday, but already, GOP fingers are being pointed and stock is being taken. Some pessimistic Republicans believe the party, as it exists on Election Day, will not remain the same come Nov. 5.
"John McCain is dragging a bloated corpse around with him. Something will have to change. The party's soul is at stake," said ABC News consultant Richard Norton Smith, the former director of the Lincoln, Hoover, Eisenhower, Reagan and Ford presidential libraries. |
