"And the symbols of our nation have become gulags, the waterboard, an endless stream of bombs and occupations, and people imprisoned forever with no charges of any kind."
Sadly, these shameful manifestations of the Bush/Cheney fascism seem to bother only a tiny fraction of the electorate. If the economy wasn't about to collapse and the nation face a likely economic depression, McCain would have probably won the elections.
McCain, who has managed to create an image entirely different from his true self has now morphed into the real McCain.-an extremely angry, mean, nasty and dangerous person. I expect him to try to whip the extreme right-wing into a frenzy and I wouldn't be surprised if there's unprecedented violence on election day with McCain goon squads preventing voters from reaching their polls. As of today, I don't believe that McCain is willing to lose this elections under any circumstances. McCain is now behaving like a National Socialist German Workers' Party, aka The Nazi Party, circa 1929.
