#1 McCain, the best of three disfunctional elite liberals who is way over his head and groping for air, funding, and the right wing.
More groping, studdering, and stumbling to come as we get closer to E-day. I call it E-day for want of a better word. It's the day when America by her own hand accelerates her abrogation.

#3 Well, DG its according the Yahoo News. You know yahoo -

A Yahoo is a legendary being in the novel Gulliver's Travels (1726) by Jonathan Swift.

Swift describes the Yahoos as vile and savage creatures, filthy and with unpleasant habits, resembling human beings far too closely for the liking of protagonist Lemuel Gulliver, who finds the calm and rational society of the Houyhnhnms far preferable. The Yahoos are primitive creatures obsessed with "pretty stones" they find by digging in mud, thus representing the distasteful materialism and ignorant elitism Swift encountered in Britain."

#4 By far the most important reason to support McCain is GRIDLOCK. More important now than ever. Much better for Congress & President to expend their energies blaming each other for what is not getting done than on working together and doing things, since most of what they would be doing would be bad.

#7 In a career that straddles both politics and journalism, Gans is also well known for leading the effort against the re-election of President Lyndon Johnson in 1967 and serving as staff director of the Presidential campaign of Senator Eugene J. McCarthy the following year. He is former member of the Democratic National Policy Council and its Foreign Policy Subcommittee. He has served as a consultant to the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars, the National Committee for an Effective Congress, and has managed a number of political campaigns.

Yep. Just a disinterested scholar.
