Neither McCain nor Obama possesses the leadership this country so desperately needs at this critical time in history - they are both pandering for votes. I am hopeful that whoever 'wins' the office of President of the United States will realize that leadership (true leadership) is not a popularity contest. We need a leader.

I guess it's ok if either (or both!) of them come to the games, but remember they need to wear Red even if the Blackhawks (Mr. Obama's local team) or Coyotes (Mr. McCain's local team) are playing against the Caps! We get too many opposing fans from the Eastern Conference that we don't need to be importing Western Conference fans... Ok, now that my tongue is out of my cheek, obviously they can attend, but let people know in advance if they're going to be there as it will take longer to get into the arena if the president is there! And tell them to bring ketchup packets ;-) Ok, I'll stop now. :D Hmmmm… I guess it’s ok if either (or both!) of them come to the games, but remember they need to wear Red even if the Blackhawks (Mr. Obama’s local team) or Coyotes (Mr. McCain’s local team) are playing against the Caps!
