This would bridge the gap between the values voters and the progressives, independents, Republicans and Democrats, as well as Baby Boomers and Gen X-ers, as well as Gen Y-ers, who can at least feel that they can relate to Senator Obama. We need both a maverick in Mr. McCain to be creative and straight-forward with America, its allies and its enemies, as well as a uniting force to blunt the edge, which would be provided by Mr. Obama. I think it would be the ultimate gest in reconciling all of these groups, and moving the country out of the Bush-Clinton-Bush generational wrangling which takes up so much time and energy in Washington away from what it should be doing - solving the country's problems. I think this is the only ticket which could help the country move on in the best possible direction. I'm all for McCain/Obama in '08.
