This is exactly why every time someone on the left mentions "McCain" they have been told to mention "Bush". It was absolutely amazing watching Chuck Shumer on Meet the Press, because he talked about Bush more than McCain. Those campainging on the left must convince the center that McCain equals Bush and are trying everything to to run their campaign that way...if they fail, they lose, and they know it. It would seem as if, at least at present, McCain and his campaign are doing a good job overcoming that effort.


And remember....those 8 years of "resounding failure" vary in definition of why it has been considered a resounding failure (failure, I agree - resounding I don't). I am not a Bush fan for vastly different reasons than most here are not.

I can't understand why any intelligent, informed voter would want to go in the direction that Obama has proposed in many areas - except that they're different. Different does not equal better. We can each go through a broad spectrum of exceptionally learned people who support the candidate we support and oppose the candidate we oppose. Just because your reasoning leads you to a different conclusion does not mean that intelligent and learned people do not come to different ones than you do.

And really, Eve Ensler writing in opposition to Palin certainly does not affect my viewpoints....in fact, it probably strengthens my positives for Palin.
