But didn't McCain himself said we should not be "scared" of an Obama presidency? It is so unfortunate. Eight years ago McCain was a good and decent man... a moderate who should have been the republican nominee and a good president. I have no doubt the world would be better off now had that been the case. Eight yeas later... McCain sold his soul to win the support of the neocons - and it's costing him the presidency. Forty percent will always vote republican, forty percent will always vote democratic. That leaves 20 percent who truly decide. All McCain needed to do was convince 10.1% of those that it was his time. The old McCain would have had that support. The new McCain... endorsing Bush's ruinious tax policies, selecting an unknown as his running mate... Sara Palin may be all you say she is but America doesn't know her. You don't turn the keys to the White House over to someone you don't know - and with McCain being 73... well, that could happen. Biden is the family goofball uncle at times. He's a good family man, still takes the train to work, had his share of tough times and we've had 30 years to get used to him. There's that comfort factor 10.1% of us have with Biden that they don't have with Palin. Obama? He entered the race two years ago because he sensed it was his time. Sometimes you pick the time, sometimes the times pick you. Despite only four years in a federal office, he ran a masterful campaign and against all odds became the Democratic nominee - and may yet be president. He's young, but his message suits the times. His intelligence is unquestioned and his gift of oratory - inspiring to some and nonsense to others - is a welcome respite from the drudgery of the past eight years. Another week, Ann... and we'll know for certain what the American people think.
