I suspect that if McCain had voted against the bailout, that he would have won this election. But he panicked and mortgaged our future, like the rest of the RINOs. On ecomomics the only difference between Obama's economic plan and McCains, was that Obama had a plan.

I thought he was going to. He went to D.C., talked to the House Republicans, who had a plan that did not require taxpayer money. And could've stood on principle on an issue that 80-90% of Americans opposed. But no...he had to quit being the maverick just at that crucial time. And he had the perfect opportunity to announce it too - in the 3rd debate. Instead, he and Obama just copied each other.

One of the constant problems during this campaign was that we couldn't contrast McCain with Obama, because too often we'd discover that McCain had the same, or nearly the same, position as Obama did.

And when he didn't, he didn't highlight it.
