Conservative Uproar

As I watched the RNC tonight, I was amazed at the amount of blows the Republican party leaders threw at the Democrats, but it is exactly what they wanted, and exactly what they needed to do. I started watching at the start of Rudy Guiliani's speech. He did exactly what he needed to do, tell America why we need to vote for McCain, and why(in a veryyyyyyyyy strong way) we cant vote for Obama. I must say that I dont agree with everything Rudy said. Throughout his speech, and in fact in all of the RNC speeches so far, one of the main talking points in their speeches has been about McCains war record. Personally, I think that someones war record should not be a reason to vote for that person. I understand that people think that because he served in the army, he's a true "American Hero". But isnt Obama a American Hero too. All those people on the south side of Chicago that received help from Barack most likely think that he is just as much an American Hero as McCain. Yes, there is a big difference between almost sacrificing your life to save others in a POW camp and helping save peoples lives in Chicago, but don't they both require a hero to do the job. However, our president should not just be a hero. He should be someone that has confidence to lead our country and enough courage to stand up to foreign powers. I believe that both candidates have those qualities, but there will be only one winner. Who will you choose?
