McCain is not Bush 2. If thats the best smear the dems can come up with......thats sad.

McCain and Bush have been opposed on numerous issues. They agreed on the war, and McCain understood early on that they were fighting it wrong.

They have had a long animosity between them, McCain is also not considered a typical Repub. He has voted against his party quite a bit. Thats why he appeals to crossover centrist voters. McCain has had a good rep as a fairly honest politician.

He's broken with his party on Gay marriage, voted no on the ban. He voted to ban drilling in the Wildlife refuges, criticized Bush for ignoring the Kyoto protocols, voted No on Bush's energy plans, voted yes to limit Presidential powers on ....He has a better voting record on the enviornment than Obama........

The dems better come up with a something else. Even his position on the war is weak, because the average American doesn't deal with the war on a daily basis. It's something on TV that doesn't touch most lives, and sadly most Americans don't really give a shit about it.

Just because he's not our candidate doesn't mean we should believe all the Blogger bullshit.....It's as dumb as believing Obama is a secret Muslim that will enslave us all
