mccain has zero foreign policy experience (sorry, he went through a lot as a POW, but that doesn't count), and fails at basic geography and socio-political comprehension (e.g. sunnis/shiites the non-existent iraq/pakistan border, etc). his voting record shows a long tradition of aping the bush line with things like the moronic war in iraq. talking about how he'd be fine with 100 years of occupation (which he increased to 10000 in later interviews), and CONSTANT about-faces in policy and statements towards his competitor's position, demonstrates just how weak a potential leader he is.

frankly, i really can't comprehend a situation where the current breed of mccain would be anything but a disaster. at best it'd be another 4 years of bush policy
