We need "risky"...

[Labors of Hercules]

Because there is so much fucked up shit that needs to be changed in this country...

and changing things means taking risks.

so when McCain says Obama's "risky", it sounds to me like he's trying to convince me to vote for Obama. :shrug:

1. You can "risk" serious change with Obama.

Or accept the sure failure and despair of McBush.

3. Framing: we compare "risk" in regards to Obama to "dangerous" with McCain

Risky is taking a chance with a relative newcomer
Dangerous is accepting as a give someone who has already displayed poor judgement and lack of conviction.

2. Whenever I hear them parroting the "risky" theme...

...I think of a bus full of people being driven by a crazed idiot straight toward a cliff, while the passengers debate whether turning control over to a trained racing driver would be "too risky," because he doesn't have a bus license.
