Talk to any 70+ year old - it is rare they rant & rave & play dirty. It was not part of their generation unless you happened to be Japanese & attacked America or were Nazi's that attacked Europe etc. It must be a highly emotional item & a threat to our homeland & way of life to awaken them (sometimes not recognizing the danger is a problem !!).
If they really knew the true BHo & what his platform is, they may feel differently. Most of the time they are strictly party voting people because that's how they were raised. Issues don't matter - it's the party.
BHo's latest platform is "We can't screw things up any worse!". What a crock of Sh__!
Yes, I do wish McCain would tear BHo apart both in public, his campaign speeches & the debates (at least the last one). It probably will not happen due to his being a 'Gentleman'. Unfortunetely neither will the news media & that is the root of the problem.
