After thinking about it this morning, I realized that McCain is probably quite pleased with Obama's stooping to name calling. Hardly the kind of behavior one would expect out of a man trying to prove himself to be Presidential. Not to mention the sense of desperation it implies.

Rightly or wrongly, elections are mostly a matter of impressions. And when a Presidential candidate is reduced to using what amounts to a schoolyard taunt, it doesn't leave a good impression. And for many people, it's a measure of what kind of a man Obama is.

If you want a good indication of where either man would take the country, simply look at the tone of their campaigns. And their prescriptions for change. Because that is the better indicator of what is to come, than any empty campaign promise.

If you believe more government interference and control of your life is what we need, then by all means, vote for Obama. If you don't, vote for McCain. Because when you cut through all the rhetoric, that's the choice you're making.
