Today, McCain launched a new attack add, claiming Obama's character flaws make him "too risky" to be president. Johnny Mc cites Obama's ties with ex-Weather Underground militant Bill Ayers as proof of his flawed judgement. Obama, meanwhile, said today that McCain's economic plan about buying up mortgages is a "risky idea." So we're not supposed to vote for the most compotent, or most experienced candidate anymore, just whoever isn't the riskiest. Whatever happened to the days when a little risk was attractive? Back in the day, when the mysterious drifter rolled into town (usually tall, dark, and handsome; not short, white, and old) all the girls went crazy. Or at the horse races, for instance, you never bet on Sure Thing, Smart Decision, or Economic Bailout. The best choices are always Cigar, Lugubrious Jack, or Thats Uncalled For. Personally, I think our candidates should stop, take a step back, and watch Ocean's 11. Those guys had it right. In three separate movies. Anyways, maybe Obama's terroist ties will make Al Qaeda respect him. Maybe then he'll be able to make some serious progress in the War on Terror. Maybe McCain's buyup policy will push us further into depression, or maybe it will miraculously solve our problems. Who knows? All I know is I've always liked a long-shot; the riskier, the better.
