I don't know how i'm wrong, i said he is the favorite.
When i say his time has passed it just means that he is not a fresh face anymore, no longer the maverick. I never would have pegged him as a real libertarian though.
The Bush presidency has done much for McCains chances in my view. When he starts making speeches about bringing back some fiscal restraint to the party he'll find many sympathetic ears.
