Besides Viet Nam, they share the fact that both bozos married big money, and thus are beholding to the interests of their wives financial fortunes.

Someone should put a stop to the myth that McCain was a serious challenge to Bush in 2000. He won Michigan and New Hampshire because they were open primaries and Democrats crossed over to vote against Bush. He also won Mass. Rhode Island and Vermont. In every other primary it wasn't even close. I believe the narrowest margin Bush won by was 60% to 35% in California.
McCain is a product of the media's wishful thinking...
