Lewis couldn't have said it better; I agree with him 100% and more.
like another poster ahead of me, I thought I could live with a McCain administration, but I have now seen, that McCain never was the hero and maverick he is thought to be.
Having been a POW doesn't entitle him to be president. There are thousands just as much a hero as he claims to be, and they don't demand to be treated different from the rest of us.
The emperor has no clothes: it is clear now, that McCain is empty inside, merely utters the hateful words written for him by others.
He also seems not to have a conscience, as shown by his accusing Obama of consorting with terrorists, and not even being able to admit, that one cannot compare Obama en Osama, because "both have friends that plant bombs".
McCain is a coward and doesn't put his country first, as his slogan says, but puts McCain's career first.
I am grateful that the Mumbai attacks occurred after de USA election, because otherwise he would have lost to McCain.
