I was sitting in a chair, eating honey- roasted peanuts and drinking a tall, cool Natural Light with Marty McFly and Dr. Emmit Brown discussing the future of this great country in light of the upcoming presidential elections.
Will the Democrats fight like schoolchildren to get on the merry-go-round ride that will only leave them dazed and confused, paving the way for hero John McCain (and, yes, he is a hero) to take the Oval Office?
