McCain's potential veep, even with two choices, is a frick and frack choice.
Neither one is good. It's really important because, if you've seen McCain in
the last three weeks or so, that man is not well. Whatever the circumstances of
his life, it has taken its toll on him. I seriously doubt he can last through
four years in the big bear's chair.
On the other hand, our fellow Americans are likely to kill Obama rather than
see one of our darker brothers hold the seat. Whether its the Timothy McVay
type terrorist, or KKK-Skin Head type terrorist, or just some random nutter
(like the one who killed John Lennon), Obama is sticking his neck way out.
Therefore, his possible veeps are also important. I doubt he'll pick Hillary
because democrats have made it pretty clear that having Hillary means having
Bill. Been there, done that. His other possible choices are all unknown to me
and probably millions of other Americans.
Personally, I'm not all that thrilled about either candidate. Unfortunately
there is no "none of the above" choice on the ballot. Neither Ralph Nader nor
Ross Perot was my idea of presidential material. Ron Paul won't cut it either,
and the other presidential independent types don't even figure on the radar.
But then, the last candidate for president I liked was Adlai Stevenson.
