This is a man who wants to be the President so bad that he will do anything to do so. Not only has he written about that fact, but it becomes obvious when you evaluate the many different messages his campaign has been about. Obama has had one fairly consistent message: I am change and we need change. McCain, even at his best, does not really represent change. Sure, the McCain I would have voted for (circa 2000) is not the McCain of today, but I don't even think the McCain of 2000 really represents the drastic change we need now. We can't keep the wealth of this country in such few hands and the Republican philosophy inherently protects that- Republican tax cuts inherently benefit the wealthiest so that they can be freer to start companies, make jobs, and pass the wealth downward. Unfortunately we've seen that this political philosophy does not take into account human greed- not saying the Dem's philosophy does, but theirs is less likely to hoard the wealth in the hands of a few, but rather in the hands of the government. I'd rather have the government because we can at least throw them out, you can't throw out rich people. Alan, I’m surprised you actually aren’t surprised of McCain’s actions.
