"This election has never been about me; it's about you," Barack Obama just claimed on the TV. The conventional wisdom is that this election is a referendum on Barack Obama. This is not true. It's a referendum on the American people. Unless we're more ignorant than I think, we will realize that McCain represents, to whatever degree, a continuation of the ideological proclivities of the last eight years, particularly the first four of those eight. That realized, the only question is whether the American people will tolerate that. I really hope not.
