<<By the way, why not you support McCain? Don't you think him more substantial than Dubya?>> You shot this one to Neo but I gotta opinion. I don't like McCain's temper. I don't want to see his finger on the button. Dubya has probably the greatest living person to guide him on a much needed course on foreign politics sitting by playing golf.

I am not sure that I have grasped the dynamics of the primary season. I had thought that South Carolina would reverse the effects of New Hampshire, and it may yet, but I do take polls seriously, and I do not know why McCain is running so strongly.... Frankly, I started with Dubya mainly because he looked like the strongest candidate. In addition, I think that executive experience is superior to legislative experience when running for the presidency, and he had been markedly successful in Texas. Also, I do not like the campaign finance reform band wagon, as it strikes me that it is unconstitutional, and a cheap way of looking anti- establishment. Finally, the Keating Five allegations are much more recent and substantial than speculations on skeletons in Dubya's closet from his 20s, and I figured we did not need even a hint of that sort of thing dogging the candidate. Nevertheless, I have no great problem with McCain at this point.......
