Here's a scary thought. It is rare for many in positions of pressure to live past the age of 75. If McCain dies after he is elected, whomever he appoints as V.P. could well be the next Pres.

William Henry Harrison was President for less than a month. He caught pneumonia because he refused to wear a coat during his inauguration address.

Your assuming he'll be elected. In my theory, if McCain croaks, Obama is president!

The difference between Democrats and Republicans is.....Republicans arent so passionate that they wish the other side just falls dead.

That would be the collapse of a real democracy.

But than again, communism closely alligns with the modern Democratic party.

Not wishing anyone dead here... just wishing someone is not elected.

Republicans are already wondering when McCain will kick it [sounds like second thoughts & likely more desertions to the Democratic party
