22. Any other year
you'd be correct, but not this year. Just look at the GOoPer race. McCain and Huckabee, the two candidates most hated by their party's establishment, are the last two men standing.

It's all timing. This year is different. It's the one positive thing we can attribute to George W. Bush: he fucked things up so badly that people are paying attention and invested and FED UP.
