The extremists in today's world probably view McCain as a man who can make a decision that might mean the obliteration of said extremists.I don't think they believe Obama has the backbone for the confrontation and consequently they might push harder and then ignite a major conflagration by shoving Obama's back to the wall,thus making him react without considering everything.With McCain they might possibly limit themselves. Just thinking out loud here.

This is an interesting New York Times article that I read a while back that might change your tune about Senator McCain. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/25/magazine/25wwln-lede-t.html Senator McCain is hardly the war fanatic that he is often made out to be. At least he has substance unlike other candidates. Senator Obama’s foreign policy is strongly based on soft power (which marches to a similar beat of this article) but the foremost expert on soft power, Joseph Nye, has questioned Senator Obama’s legitimacy.
