    SushiSake3,

    With other seniors, I might have little to worry about but the thing that did it for me was the "bomb, bomb, bomb Iran" ditty.

    Man, sing it in private in the shower, whatever, but not in front of anyone - friendly audience or not - as McCain did…

    Betzee,

    Good points about the comparison between internal and external threats. However, I am not sure Maliki is actually that confident that his government will be able to control the internal threats after a premature US withdrawal.

    Specifically Washington, not Baghdad, will determine when Iraq has been attacked. US soldiers…

    Madverts,

    Thanks for that, and for the interesting post. Well, I do think Mr. Obama becoming president does give the US a lot of room for growth in many areas that it seems to need to grow. In many ways, the US strikes me as being much like someone going…

    SushiSake3,

    Well, now you are suggesting (correctly or incorrectly) that McCain might have something wrong or he has a high potential for something to go wrong with him mentally. Again, I am assuming you are posing your question specifically about McCain and not about other people his age, right? So,…

    I think "Kitty-chan" would probably be the best US president from the perspective of many Japanese people. However, I don't believe a Kitty-chan can become US president because she was born in Japan. So, I vote for Mickey Mouse.

    SushiSake3,

    As mentioned above, fair enough on the "flip-flops" if that is how you feel. However, some posters seem to be focusing on McCain's age a bit too much as opposed to discussing his "flip-flops". I don't think candidates should be judge unfit to run or take office just because…

    Madverts,

    I do and have listened to what he has to say. I think he far too old and far too out of touch to be considered electable.

    Fair enough on the "out of touch" part, if that is how you feel. However, I don't think a person's age makes…

    Speed,

    I agree. There look like very good steps in the right direction and the people they are looking to help will be grateful for the assistance. It is nice to see the government beginning to think about the weakest among us and how they can be helped.

    Madverts,

    That is one of the most ironic things about the present situation in Iraq. Saddam Hussein was a loose nut, but he was a secularist loose nut. If people are not careful, Iraq will go the way of Iran and more and more women there too will learn to…

    sabiwabi,

    Maybe, but for most jobs, he would have long retired; and being president of the US is more demanding than most jobs.

    John McCain is younger than Ralph Nader and Nader's age doesn't seem to cause you any worry. Why should McCain's?
