Did anyone hear McCain so much as mention School Vouchers this election?

You should pay attention. If you google 'McCain Vouchers' in English over the past year there are more than 55,000 hits. Not a McCainiac, but let us try to get things correct.

Indeed. McCain has enough bad traits in reality. We shouldn’t make stuff up about him.

I asked if anyone had heard him mention vouchers this election. I never said he did not. I never heard him and I was paying attention. Clearly he did not get his message out to this voter.

Many of the hits have to do with a speech he gave to the NAACP, of which I am not a member, and statements of his position. Apparently he chided Obama early in the campaign for not being for vouchers and I missed that. Perhaps I am able to filter dishonesty subconsciously and never realized it. :)

“Mr. McCain downplayed his own support for vouchers. The only voucher proposal in his education plan was a declaration of support for the voucher program in Washington, D.C. Instead, Mr. McCain’s plan focused on politically safer options, such as charter schools and bonus pay for teachers.”
