It's about time the presidential candidates come clean.
We know all about their platforms and about what they would do -- or try to do -- if elected.
It's what we don't know that scares me?
And it's more important than a campaign promise.
Starting with the debate tonight, I want them to start naming names.
I want to know who they are planning to surround themselves.
I want to know who their advisers are going to be and I want to with whom they are going to build their cabinet.
Secretary of Defense. Secretary of State. Chief of Staff.
We can play guessing games and come close, but it's not play time.
We know, from the laughable administration about to end, how important these people in high posts can be in our quest to remain a solvent nation.
And I want to know who they are now, not later -- after the fact.
I'll go so far as to say that if John McCain supplies a list -- and the list is a virtual dream team -- I may consider switching sides.
This issue is that important to me.
Just like a football coach is only as good as his offensive and defensive coordinators, a president is only as good as the people around him.
And I want a good president for a change.
