The difference is overall, he's the frontrunner, because the GOP simply does not have someone with as much appeal as McCain did this time around. The GOP has the second-best candidate this time because the best they had is no longer running. And that does not make things look good for the GOP.

I may be speaking too soon. Anything can happen between now and November. But still...
I dont see how you could think McCain was the best candidate. He believed that being a moderate in terms of being moderate on Immigration reform and such would help him with Hispanics when it did not. He was not in anyway handsome like Mitt or Obama. And the military service aspect doesn't matter to voters, unlike Romney's success plan for companies and the Olympic committee.
