I agree, and I hope you're wrong adn that it's not a detriment. Because if McCain wins, I AM moving to Canada. Or invading it, since they won't want the influx of panicked Americans.
Every time I hear (during elections) someone say they like a candidate because he seems like the sort of person they could sit down and have coffee with, I get nuts. I don't WANT to have coffee with my president! I want him/her/it (alien) to be too busy fighting for Truth, Justice, and the Amuracan way. ;-P I WANt him to be Much MUCH smarter than I am -- and much smarter than everyone else in politics he needs to outsmart to get good things done.
These days, though, it seems I'd settle for someone who doesn't make me embarrassed on levels I didn't think existed before.
