In light on the world status, with so much violenace anw ar and distrust going on--we UNFORTUNATLY need someone Strong, with War expericance--not a pleasent talker who has limited experiance.
McCain must win, or the USA id History---simple as that
WHAT??!! Have you heard "Imperial Overstretch"? McCain's desire to remain in Iraq for probably a 100years should the situation demand it will weaken America. America has spent close to a trillion dollars on Iraq and Afghanistan with little progress. This money was borrowed and America will definitely pay for it. It's time for America to at least end Iraq so that it can regain some of its strength. America has to focus on Afghanistan where the real threat is. One of the reasons why Iran does not fear America is because they know America is stretched right now. If America keeps moving on this path, it will rather increase terrorism and make more Americans unsafe.

Go read Yale historian Paul Kennedy's book The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers for a more detailed analysis of Imperial Overstretch.
