maybe it's because mcsame flip-flopped (again) and came out in favor of offshore drilling
and let's be clear about how he earned the mcsame moniker.....few would doubt that the biggest issues for voters this election year are:
the economy
iraq
health care
mcsame and the bush white house are in lock step on these issues.....however,k feel free to show how mcsame has markedly different agenda.
and let's also not forget that bush voted with bush's white house 95% of the time

Q:Is it true John McCain voted with George Bush 95 percent of the time?
A: Yes, it's true, according to Congressional Quarterly's assessment of McCain's voting record.Sen. Barack Obama has attempted to use the Arizona senator's voting record against him in statements like this:
Barack Obama (June 3): It's not change when John McCain decided to stand with George Bush 95 percent of the time, as he did in the Senate last year.
The claim is true. According to Congressional Quarterly's Voting Studies, in 2007 McCain voted in line with the president's position 95 percent of the time – the highest percentage rate for McCain since Bush took office – and voted in line with his party 90 percent of the time. |
