Iran

While I have been disappointment with the "centering" of Barack Obama (which has seemed a little bit more like the "righting" of Barack Obama), it is to be expected.

When you build up a grassroots coalition like this, people become seriously invested in you, and when there is a disagreement, they feel betrayed. I felt betrayed.

This does not, however, mean that I do not recognize the importance of this man, and his unique qualifications to tackle the monumental clean up work left by these NeoCons and their doctrine of Apocalypse.

Witness the difference : Iran. You want a sensible dialogue with government who's people are ready to resume a sane relationship with this world, or do you want another fine edition of Reagan's Star Wars bullshit, with a helping provoking the Russians into a war? Afterall, weren't we all depressed when that showdown never took place. McCain seems to be.

He's the deal. You send a Cold Warrior into this, and you get the last eight years, magnified in intensity. McCain has shown he is incapable of dealing with the new paradigm, the new international reality. The real politik has changed. The binarism of the Cold War is over.

This is the man for our times.
