Matt Damon has a point, but it doesn't resonate with me in the way I think he intended it.
If you're going to use the U.S. President vs. Putin scenario, the only one of the entire bunch (Obama, Biden, McCain, Palin) I would feel comfortable having go against Putin is McCain.
Obama is like the little kid trying to look tough in that scenario, Biden is just another long-term senator, and yeah, Palin is about as inexperienced or ill-equipped as the first two.
If I have two parties, and only one party has at least ONE person I'd feel comfortable standing up to Putin, why would I vote for the other?
