John McCain is an Idiot

No doubt this will come as a shock to regular readers, but I am endorsing Barack Obama for President.

Obama has a lot of good qualities, but probably more important is the fact that his opponent is an idiot. Much has been made in the liberal blogosphere about the disreputable and dishonest campaign McCain has conducted, but of more import to me is his impetuous stupidity. McCain's odd and ill-considered choices, most notably the way he chose his Vice President, confirm a lot of things long known and suspected: his vanity, his gamblers recklessness, his lack of intellectual depth and rigor. Such traits are relatively minor nuisances in a Senator or Representative, where a few hotheads are surrounded by many more cautious souls. In a President, they are disastrous.

We just saw this movie, folks. If we do it again, the survival of the Republic may be at stake.
