The problem with visibly supporting McCain (sign in the yard) is that people might think you're racist.

I don't live in VA, but I feel I have to reply to the last two comments.

I agree that the "likable enough" comment was dumb. But I don't think there is a politician (or anyone else) alive who has not made a dumb remark now and then. I don't believe you - 20:54 - are really going to base your vote on that. Saying it to get your anger out is reasonable though.

As for experience, I'm sure you - 20:48 - have seen the response: A law degree from Harvard, Law Review, community organizer, state and federal legislatures. It's not naval service and House and Senate for thirty years (or however long McCain has been around), but it brings a different perspective, whereas military and/or Senate experience are never in short supply in any administration.

I can understand voting for McCain because you're more comfortable with his policies, or even your gut reaction to him as a human being. But I hope neither of you will really decide your vote based on some sound-bite criticism of Obama.

I drove thru rural VA last week, between Fredericksburg and the Chesapeake. Saw tons of Obama signs on peoples' lawns.
