I'd show scenes of the Great Depression and conflate those images with an image of a red-faced berserk looking McCain. Add in some ominous music. Maybe a few of his stupid quotes on the economy. Just drive it home that this guy would put people in the streets.

1. And of course the nuclear blast, set off by President Palin in a fit of pique over her drapery color

4. That is not right
The thought of her being president... that probably even freaks McCain out.

2. I have a better idea...
How about starting with a clip of a speech of McCain talking about privatizing Soc Sec. Then show come clips of the CNBC talking heads panicking as the market melts down.

9. Compare McCain to Hoover...
Show clips of them both with quotes about the economy being fundamentally sound and then show scenes of the Great depression pointing out what happens when the financial market is allowed to run wild and unregulated. Hint that global depression leads to global conflict... (WW II) end it with something about we cant afford to go through it all again.
