We're only a few weeks away from the election. And it's becoming more and more apparent that Barack Obama will likely be the next President of the United States.
I find myself wondering, what about McCain? Does he just return to the Senate and keep right on doing what he's been doing? Which admittedly is very good work, but the way he's flipflopped on some things just to try to bring in the Republican base, makes me wonder what he'd do in the White House.
My wife and I were talking about the campaign on our way to work the other morning, as we often do. And it occured to us, that given Barack Obama's statements that he will build a bipartisan cabinet, that John McCain would make a fine addition to that cabinet. Particularly, I think he would make a top notch Secretary of Defense. Then he could make sure that this country was properly defended, and would see to it that our veterans were properly cared for. McCain is a man of honor and a true American Hero. Nobody disputes that, least of all Barack Obama. I think he would do an excellent job as President Obama's Secretary of Defense.
PLUS we would have the added benefit of having Barack Obama in a position of authority over him to keep the "maverick" in check.
I welcome your comments on this idea.
Jeff
