Solid Performance by McCain
My review of the senator's acceptance speech last night, posted to FSM:
Always strong on national security, he reminded Americans that al Qaeda remains a threat; Iran is not only a major sponsor of worldwide terror but is also seeking nuclear weapons; and Russia, rich with oil wealth, has a corrupt government and seems determined to exert its influence on unwilling neighbors like Georgia. And, as one would expect, he highlighted his initially unpopular support for a surge in Iraq that has proven successful. Invoking Bush and Reagan, he said, “I know how the world works. I know the good and the evil in it.”

John did very well. He wasn't brilliant and he didn't cause a tingle down my leg but then at my age, nothing does! I think with all the terrors facing our nation, he is by far the better choice of the two principle candidates and given the choice between the appalling Rosary Joe Biden and the incandescent Gov. Sarah Palin, it is not contest. She's the real deal; he's merely counterfeit from base metal!
