Well what can I say. You have to take into account all the factors involved with John McCain and where his possible choices might originate.

I survived the violence today, but NOW WHAT? What if it happens again? Don't kid yourself because it ALWAYS happens again, and it will get worse. Where do I go? Who do I turn to for help?
