During the last debate McCain looked weary, agitated, and his voice was shaky. After the debate he immediately left rather than hanging around. In general he looked and sounded to me like a guy who doesn't want to be President. And during the debate, he never pulled out any of the negative bullshit and I wondered why. The thing that immediately struck me was that he'd found his honor. I speculated that because McCain is a guy who's never cared about economic policy, and has started to realize that that's really all the next 4 years are going to be about - or should be - that he started looked around him. He saw a bunch of people he didn't like telling him to do a bunch of stuff he didn't want to do and decided that the whole gig was really sucking. And then, I speculated, maybe he decided that win or lose he would do so with honor by focusing on his vision and his policies and win on them or not - as he'd promised the country. And then I realized that if that was the case, McCain had cemented his legacy. Well, my speculation hasn't played out. He pulled the sexist bullshit with Palin and now he's pulling the racist, terrorist, muslim bullshit because that's all he's got. And what it tells me is that McCain is empty inside and is willing to use the worst of the country to win. Willing to risk bringing out the crazies to win. McCain is inciting people and hearing them yell "kill 'im!". I've never been less proud of a candidate; mostly because I used to respect McCain. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:273246 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
