Thank you for pointing out that which should be obvious. John McCain is an eccentric, vainglorious character who is erratic in his views,impulsive and ill advised in his decision making,has questionable control of his temper and is given to meanness and personal attacks on those who oppose him. As such he represents a much larger risk to the country as President that the emotionally balanced, fair minded and intellectually brilliant Barack Obama. Why can't this case be made by Democrats?
