Saint John McCain

Decides he likes torture after all.

Anyway, my nightmare matchup is McCain vs. Clinton. Not because I think Clinton would lose, but because on one hand we have a candidate who never lies, never "flip flops," never deviates from his principles, never panders to anyone, and delivers nothing but a never-ending stream of sage mavericky straight talk. And on the other we have a candidate who is unable to do perfectly normal things like "raise money," "campaign," or "not divorce her husband" without it being seen as somehow scandalously inappropriate.

That's how the Villagers see things anyway, and not even a little bit of waterboarding will make them change.

...to be clear, when I say it's my nightmare I'm just referring to the impact on my mental state over the campaign season.
