I agree McCain is the worst possible choice. He is to the left of even the average Democratic voter. And he has a history of scandals - adultery, Keating 5, etc. There is something creepy, not right about him.
The Democrats might be raising, among other controversies, the "Manchurian Candidate" buzz about him in the general election. Nearly two weeks ago when I googled "McCain" and "Manchurian Candidate," I received 39,100 hits. By this morning it had grown to 897,000 hits
Hopelessly naive and wrong. McCain is 5-10 points to Bush's right, and Bush is well to the right of the mainstream US voter today. But the average Dem voter is for Peace Now and Socialism Tomorrow, and McCain is neither.
