Wrong-Way McCain

Submitted by Brooklyn, Sep 7, 2008 00:27

Dear Sun, Extremely well stated. GW BUSH was-is outstanding, and if the McCain Camp had more guts, they might fight for improving the Bush Image and raising the GOP's prospects as a whole this Nov. The problem for McCain, in my humble opinion, is a conflicted offering. He prefers accommodation, for his own personal gain, while the results of this Maverick strategy over the past 24 years in Washington hasn't been very successful. One must take a new leap of faith, to believe McCain can be a sound manager, providing the Leadership to accomplish what he hasn't before. And the McCain-Feingold offering, makes one question his desired bi-partisan approach, which may be counterproductive, sacrificing sound policy for a shared adventure. Perhaps the sale of the ambivalent independent is a wise political move. Perhaps the attempt to attract the Democrats and Independents by appealing to their desires could be a winner. But the excitement about Palin's Conservative-Outsider Image suggests the opposite.
