I am first saddened that a great American hero like John McCain, and I do mean that in all seriousness had to get dragged through the mud like this and be assoicated with these spiteful and ignorant people. Now, of course he has no one but himself (and the fuck assholes like Palin, Rick Davis, Schmidt he employed. I see him as a misunderstood charcter in all this not all that dissimilar from the Star Wars Anakin Skywalker when he was used by the Emperor and tricked into becoming the evil Darth Vader.
But, more importantly McCain reminded me not since Obama was nominated that how proud I am of this fine country and to be an American. So, though I am a huge Obama supporter I say thanks and job well done today by John McCain. He showed us all in these very difficult times what it is to be an american and what it means to stand up to oppression, ignorance and racism. I am sure once the election is over if Obama wins he will mention this very same thing in his vctory speech when he speaks of McCain.
