McCain-Palin Campaign Button, 2008
Add to SetSummary
Arizona Senator John McCain was the 2008 Republican Party's presidential nominee. At first, Republican campaign material touted the political experience of this long-serving member of the Senate. But when McCain was accused of offering "more of the same," he and running mate Sarah Palin revised their approach to convince voters that they actually embodied change. Nevertheless Obama won the election.
