"In case you haven’t noticed, Dems have now lost their fear of promising to raise taxes, that’s how badly conservative stewardship of the economy has gotten. And McCain’s not the one who put us in this place, it’s President Bush with the 100% support of Movement Conservatives."


BINGO!!! I have always been at least as wary of Bush as I was of McCain. While I understand that conservatives have doubts about McCain, I never did understand the free pass that Bush got. It tends to make me doubt the credibility of some of his critics.

Yeah, this is the part I’m not getting either, folks are all, McCain will damage Conservatism, they don’t seem to be aware that “Conservatism” is badly tarnished after Movement Conservatives enabled 2 Neoliberal terms under Bush.

What’s most needed now is someone to convince middle America that Conservatism isn’t a wingnut philosophy that’s harmful to America, because that’s the impression of 2/3 of the country right now.

Instead of bashing McCain, Movement Conservatives should be focused on making America understand, Bush by and large wasn’t a Conservative and that was the problem.
