washingtonpost.com — Can his dismaying temperament be fixed? Under the pressure of the financial crisis, one presidential candidate is behaving like a flustered rookie playing in a league too high. It is not Barack Obama.

Perhaps because McCain is not to blame for all of this???All you Pro-Obama liberals would like to think so though. If McCain was not running for president, liberals would have never mentioned his name in correlation with the economic crisis.

Powell is not a leftist, Senior Idiot. He just subscribes to common sense and seeing situations objectively and making rational, smart decisions. In fact, I am not a Bush fan, but I have always said I could vote for a Republican. And I would name Powell and McCain as two Republicans I could support. But that was before Powell stood up for his beliefs in spite of intense pressure, got played by the Bush cronies like Rumsfeld and Cheney, but kept his integrity. And it was before McCain sold out all of his integrity in order for the chance to get into power. McCain is not the man he once was, and it is more clear now that he probably never had the leadership to be President - just a good soldier and supporter who could think objectively - and now is not the man he used to be.

Now McCain is in free fall. Asking to cancel the Debate so they {Obama & McCain} can work on the Wall Street Crisis.

I love that this article is tagged as possibly inaccurate. Good job, McCain voters. But maybe you should realize that, since it is an opinion article, it is Will's opinion. It is his accurate opinion. It scares the hell out of me that you are actually allowed to vote.

Download some of the Daily Show from around the time of the Republican National Convention--Jon Stewart won't mind you downloading, trust me. His show did a great job of comparing video clips from Bush running for Pres and McCain running before also... compared to McCain now.

There's also Europe. I've said a few times in the last few months that I'm moving to Germany if this BS Republican ticket wins over Obama. Germany's a great land of universal health care, efficient transportation systems, excellent education, beautiful landscapes, plenty of engineering/computer/science opportunities, and really nice & hard-working while fun-loving people (for the most part). Plus, they almost all know and conduct business in English.
