Is "Wet-Start" McCain an Asset or a Liability for the US?
Personally I think his 'all war, all the time' mantra is more than a little tired.

IMHO, in order for the US to reclaim its superpower status, we need to engage both enemies and allies in meaningful diplomacy.

Slightly off-topic, why is it that this will probably be referred to as 'appeasement' when it's is plain old international diplomacy?

1. You don't like the all war, all the time channel?
Too bad, cuz it's rolling forward no matter who gets in.

As for our superpower status, it's not gone...we've just stopped being a RESPECTED superpower and defaulted tot he usual FEARED type. We decided we were spending too much on PR, apparently.

3. Wow
I reckon you're referring to when he dropped his ordinance in the fire, right?

I don't need a 'hot dog' president who will accidentally set the world on fire because he had a senior moment...

And why was Pilot McCain the only one immediately transferred?
