Message: Entry: Is Obama really better than McCain? Link: http://www.takimag.com/sniperstower/article/is_obama_really_better_than_mccain#27662 Post contents: "Fifth, although America is in precipitous decline (especially in terms of her economy), what the United States does still has symbolic value around the world, especially in the West, and having a multicultural, untethered president like Obama could “send the wrong message.” Is it inconsequential that almost every Anglo or European conservative I know fears an Obama presidency just as much as, if not more than, a McCain one?" They all hate America. European pride seems in good part defined by opposition to America. If we become a global beast, perhaps they'd react against globalism. --- "Finally, make no mistake about it, Obama is a radical leftist. He will establish a PC regime in DC (or rather, expand the existing one) in search of the dragons of inequality and social injustice to slay." Would McCain be any different? "It may take yet another incompetent GOP administration finally to convince your average conservative Americans that the neocons are not their allies. They trusted for a while that Bush was one of their own (until immigration reform came along); but with McCain there will be no illusions." How many have we already had thusfar? This is a tried and failed strategy. "a humiliating defeat for Obama could give leverage to an anti-globalist moderate seeking the Democratic nomination in 2012, perhaps someone in the mold of Lou Dobbs. (This is highly unlikely, but one can hope.)" Or it could create a Marxist opposition which would build in response to McCain. Obama could be the Goldwater of the left. --- That said, you present the best case against Obamania I've yet seen. Sent at: 2008 11 20
