From Obama To McCain?

No doubt this represents disgust at the core of the Obama coalition and little else. But I have received too many emails on these lines not to pass it along:

I am a lifelong Democrat and have been a strong Obama advocate--even donating money for the very first time in my life. (And I am over 50.)  Still, all along, I thought, if Clinton gets the nomination, I'd vote for her over a Republican.  Especially after the past decade of the Republican experience.  However, after seeing Clinton in action in these past weeks and at last night's debate (as well as Bill's "contributions"), I will never vote for her. Never. If she gets the nomination, I will have to hope that McCain is nominated and give him a good look.

While I have considerable disagreement with him on a policy level, he is a man of integrity.  (Mostly; but that's another email.)  Perhaps a McCain presidency balanced by a Democratic Congress will serve the country well.  But no matter the Republican nominee, one thing is certain:  I will not vote for Hillary.  The person who once bemoaned the politics of personal destruction now applies them with stomach-turning zeal.  Not to mention her well-crafted art of the politics of distortion.  No, that's not what I want for this country.  We've had enough of destruction, distortion and manipulation.  Obama is a breath of welcome fresh air.  If the country does not see it, well, then I suppose we'll "get what we deserve."  Again.
