We select electors, who pledge their electoral vote to a specific candidate.

In December, the electors of each state meet to vote for President and Vice President. The Presidential election is decided by the combined results of the 51 (the 50 states and the District of Columbia) state elections. It is possible that an elector could ignore the results of the popular vote, but that occurs very rarely.

could they vote McCain Pres and Biden VP ?

THAT is the worst thing I can imagine...Biden for anything ...YIKKES!

What would happen is that the Electorial College would make Biden President.

In his inaugural Biden would probably talk about the last time he was President.
