What a cynic, but true -- and the same could be said for what happens to McCain's supporters, it will be an official stamp that the neo-con movement is over. They will go back to their hovels and realize that their leaders failed and failed miserably as they blindly supported them as they strayed off the track in the name of political expediency which came back to bite them hard. Its the pendulum swinging baby.
The only difference between the Arab world and the US is that there is a basic distrust of our leaders, we speak about these leaders' flaws openly. It is the basic tenant of American politics... did it work? No, okay lets try something different.... So what, get over yourself. Our politics despite some of the lemmings on the Left and Right are not a religion and as God made humans, we all have our flaws that we are coming to terms with and trying to overcome. For we are a country of immigrants that said enough is enough, I am going somewhere else to try something different in a place that will give me the space to go for it.
