Point well taken.
And if the stakes were any lower, I would slap an Obama sticker on my car and say "Let's give it a shot!"
Unfortunately, my nigh on apocalyptic worldview has me thinking that if McCain gets the presidency the 2008 election could be the last one for a long time.
I know I've lamented the falling of the electorial sky before. Frankly, I still think the elections could be derailed "temporarily" should it look like Obama is winning come late October (I don't think the Powers That Be would be at all concerned with a Hillary surge), but that is neither here nor there.
A McCain presidency will more deeply entrench us in Iraq; heighten tensions with Iran, Russia and China; prompt additional wars; devastate the economy; and further radicalize islamic jihadism.
I look at McCain's platform, the creepy preachers he embraces, his erratic behavior and I cannot imagine our nation surviving 4 years with him (and his various handlers/enablers) at the helm.
The stakes are too high for a grand experiment this time around.
