Rod fears that a President Obama would be the Democrats’ Reagan, transforming politics for years to come and moving the country significantly to the left. (Obama himself, of course, essentially made the same comparison in his Reagan comments.) If this were true, it could be a compelling reason to vote even for McCain, assuming it comes to that. But this fear (or hope, depending on where you’re standing) is groundless. While Obama would indeed make a fine head of state, what with all his great gusts of hot air, he’d likely be a feckless head of government, and you need to be both if you’re going to repeat Reagan’s or FDR’s performances. Obama’s so left-wing he doesn’t even know how left-wing he is, ensuring that once in office, he’d step in it over and over again (and may already have done so with his unwavering support of driver’s licenses for illegal aliens). An Obama Administration would be bad news, but transformative? No.
