Nixon said it best: People want poetry in their politics.
That is why we so admire Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Dr. Martin Luther King.
That is why there is a ground swell of support for Barak Obama. His New Hampshire speech evoked our desire for someone to tell us who we are.
And to do it with poetic eloquence.
For McCain to score essential points, he must, in his no nonsense way, create an eloquence like unto Churchill, or Shakepeare's King Henry V, or Lincoln.
People voted for Lincoln and FDR in times of war, and will vote for McCain at this time, if the case for our continued action is well-stated.
We must begin to see the war from the soldier's point of view, state that view forcefully and eloquently, then enlist the continued sacrifice of the People.
