McCain?

Posted in Politics at 00:49 by jmorgan

Here’s a quick question. Does anybody actually like McCain?

I’m serious. I live in Oklahoma. It doesn’t get much redder. And I can count on one hand the people I know who are even considering voting for Obama. But I can’t think of a single time than one of the McCain supporters has voiced a reason for voting for McCain.

Of course, they express reasons for voting against Obama. Actually, there’s only two reasons. The first is a real question as to his foreign policy credentials. The second is this sort of vague repeat of internet hoaxes. In short, some of the people I know actually think that Obama supports anti-US terrorism. Don’t ask me how otherwise seemingly intelligent people try to explain that point of view, because of course they don’t try to explain it. I guess it’s pure fear.

But, then, that appears to be the only angle McCain supporters have.

Fear.
