If you believe what you’ve written here, there’s no way you could conceivably vote for McCain. Indeed, you’d have to be completely apathetic to give the same party and a man that has been in political office for 30 years another 4 years to try to make something happen. He may have started to cling to the “change” thing because they were desperate to distance themselves from this failure of an administration as much as possible. However, just because the figurehead changes doesn’t not mean the decision-makers and interests behind them will.

It’s naive (and frankly, asinine) to think otherwise.
