I think, that as worked up as people on both sides are about who will be the future president of the US, even McCain could be assassinated before he died of old age.

Being a bit of a hermit, I rarely seek out social connections. Contact with me is not for the easily offended as I do not indulge in trivialities and niceties. I prefer the direct, blunt approach which seems keep most away.
Dream Song 14
John Berryman
Life, friends, is boring. We must not say so.
After all, the sky flashes, the great sea yearns,
we ourselves flash and yearn,
and moreover my mother told me as a boy
(repeatingly) "Ever to confess you're bored
means you have no
Inner Resources." I conclude now I have no
inner resources, because I am heavy bored.
Peoples bore me,
literature bores me, especially great literature,
Henry bores me, with his plights & gripes
as bad as Achilles,
who loves people and valiant art, which bores me.
And the tranquil hills, & gin, look like a drag
and somehow a dog
has taken itself & its tail considerably away
into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
behind: me, wag.
