I don't see McCain showing the slightest sense of what the larger battlefield looks like.

That is an excellent point, and one I hadn't considered. With his clearly-demonstrated adherence to liberal economics and cultural values, on what principle would McCain fight the Islamofascist war?

Would he seal the border trying to prevent terrorists from coming in? (I don't think so).

Would he act unilaterally to strike a nation like Iran if, say, France and Germany objected? (I don't think so).

Would he actually LOOK at evidence that global warming is silly? (Nyet.)
