Comments: That One?

McCain gained back a bit of respect from me the other day when during one of his Town Hall meetings a man told McCain, “My wife and I are expecting our first child, in April 2nd, next year,” the man said. “And frankly, we're scared. We're scared of an Obama presidency.”

McCain told the man he should not fear Obama.

“I want to be president of the United States, and I don't want Obama to be,” he said. “But I have to tell you, I have to tell you, he is a decent person, and a person that you do not have to be scared as President of the United States.”

Of course, this in no way means I'll vote for McCain, just that he gained back a bit of my respect.

Unlike Vito, I respect McCain even less as I watched when he hung his head low and made that statement to people at HIS rally; only a day or so after he and Miss Sarah tried to tear Barrack to bits and pieces among a crowd of angry people who are also bigots. How could he have possibly been sincere? He wasn't.

I am thrilled to see that WV. is leaning toward Obama now. For many years the state of West Virginia was primarily democrat. It's certainly time to see those folks coming around again.

All of the fears of a new world order are very real, I think. And, we should be looking at our government's affairs as a good reason to be afraid. I can't wait to get to the polls.
