I found this Twilight Zone episode that reminds me of AS! Oliver Crangle is a fanatic who maintains records of people he deems evil, calling and writing their employers to remind them of the evil acts in question and to demand their immediate firing. Unsatisfied with the results he gets with anonymous threats, he searches for a more effective way to eliminate all evil from the world. His acts attract the attention of the government and agent Hall is sent to investigate. Crangle tells him that he has finally devised a plan to shrink every "evil" person down to two feet tall at four o’clock that afternoon through sheer force of will. Hall dismisses him as a crank and leaves. When four o'clock rolls around, Crangle is dismayed to find that he himself has been shrunk to two feet tall.

You think McCain can beat Obama? How? What person in their right mind would choose McCain is they had a chance to see both men talk in depot about the issues facing our country? Well, rightwingers maybe, and a few 80 year old independents who identify with McCain. But McCain has no ideas, no solutions, no nothing. He is trying to run his entire campaign on the fact that he was once a POW and was tortured into signing a condemnation of the USA. That's not going to take him far. This country is not just tired of war, it's exhausted by Iraq. We all want a long break or peace, prosperity and helping the middleclass (not the big corporations and billionaires). We also want health care, a clean green environment, harmony with allies, etc. McCain is not a bad man he's just boring, has no ideas and is actually too old to be president. He's not a healthy man, you know. Chuck Norris was right about that.
