Neither the USA nor the USSR desires a nuclear war. If it does happen, it will most likely be because the Soviets thought they could get away with something, only to find out (too late) that they were mistaken. (I would have really been worried had Mondale been elected.) I think this discussion, despite your disclaimer, properly belongs in net.politics. Your very question is loaded. Pleasant dreams!
