I predict that if McCain were in office he would be upping troop levels in Afghanistan, vowing to stay until "victory" is secured there (ha ha), and blathering on about how the USA "won't be cowed by North Korea".....now THERE's a ridiculous notion! ;-) It's like declaring that Russia won't be cowed by Jamaica or something along that line.

In other words, he'd be doing a lot of the same stupid imperial stuff that Obama is doing, only he'd look and sound a WHOLE LOT stupider while he said it.

Obama doesn't look or sound stupid. He just makes stupid policy decisions while looking and sound intelligent. He probably is very intelligent, I think....but, alas, he is a front man for something else entirely, and he has to do exactly what that something else requires him to do.
