| I think McCain would be no slouch in foriegn affairs. If he loses, I would hope he is drafted into the administration to work internationally. I do think it is a strength of his. His America is a strong silent type, whereas GW's is a "what? you looking at me?" type. Same party different demeanors. McCain would not hurt us internationally in the same ways gw has.
The only thing I hold against him is the polictics of the body, mine. He's had to join the side of some very religous zealots (mr. robertson) that makes me uneasy. I was willing to vote for him in the past, it's the friends he had to make this time around that bother me. What concessions has he had to make?
As far as internationally, either hillary or obama would hope to be as good as McCain. It doesn't mean I'm voting for him, but really it's not his weakness. And as much as I hated the invasion, we aren't going to leave because we can't. It is the iconic "tarbaby" that we will never get our hands unstuck from. Just how it is at this point, can't be helped anymore. |
