McCain’s airforce record is hardly something to be proud of. He crashed 3 planes. In Vietnam, he was trusted with only the lesser planes and least valuable sorties. However, his Polident slippage in his opening Convention speech will destroy his chances in any case. Further, Americans can see the empty seats at the GOP convention. Four local radio stations were giving away tickets yesterday. In stark contrast, Obama had a 200,000 person waiting list for closing of the Dem convention.

It is true that Dem Presidents – Carter, for example – divided the country. Nobody is as aloof and divisive as Bush. And the GOP offers 4 years of the same.
