You are correct in feeling sorry for John McCain. He is a supremely qualified candidate who is likely to be nudged out of the White House by a young, P.C. and very charming candidate. The fact that that charming candidate has no experience and a host of problems that makes him a very dangerous choice in this most dangerous of times doesn’t seem to faze anyone. The threat of terrorism and its assured continuance in our lifetimes is like the 300 pound gorilla in our living room that everyone is pretending not to see. While Mr. Obama talks talks simplistically about “change”, the rallying cry of all campaigns, there will be no change on the part of the terrorists. They want us dead, plain and simple. Obama in the White House will make that desire flame even higher considering the fact that, as our President, he will be considered an “apostate muslim” and, as such, according to their Koran, requiring death…preferably by beheading. It’s hard to imagine any constructive negotiations taking place between Muslim terrorists and the world-wide object of their hatred. Any chance for peace in the Middle East will be completely lost if Obama wins the White House…they will never sit down with him. Americans must get over their irrational obsession with charming men in the White House (Kennedy, Reagan, Clinton) and value substance, especially in this time of great danger. Let’s hope cooler heads prevail.
