McCain to try to claim mantle of change

[JI7]

Previewing his remarks, McCain told reporters on his campaign bus in Nashville, Tenn.: "The message is change. It's real change. I think it's clear I have a record of working across the aisle. Senator Obama does not. I think it's my record of reform and efforts to change the way we do business in Washington. He has the most liberal voting record of any senator in the U.S. Senate."

An Obama spokesman responded by arguing that despite McCain's "occasional independence" from the GOP, he has embraced most of President Bush's agenda. "No matter how hard he tries to spin it otherwise, that kind of record is simply not the change the American people are looking for or deserve," Bill Burton said.

For weeks now, Obama has been portraying McCain as a Washington insider who offers nothing more than a third term of Bush and a continuation of partisan politics that turns off people.

"I will leave it up to Senator McCain to explain to the American people whether his policies and positions represent long-held convictions or Washington calculations, but the one thing they don't represent is change," Obama said recently.

If you consider continuing to allow lobbyists to run our government to be change, McCain will certainly bring it.

8. More and more every day, McSame shows himself to be just another Bushie Liar, a Toady and Whore

(no offense to honest prostitutes, who are smeared by association with a lying totalitarian scum like McSame)

He is disgusting, and he will make as grotesque Emperor as the Amerikan Empire has ever had in it's short history (2001-?).

9. Is McCain's mantle-of-change sewn out of those pennies you can

smush into souveniers at tourist attractions??

[rasputin1952]

21. The "change" he speaks of is a rapid change of underwear when

he gets soundly thrashed in the first "debate"...:D

[denverbill]

22. He changes his position on virtually every issues quite frequently.

I mean, he claims to be for Bush's tax cuts when he actually voted against them. He lobbied hard for the immigration reform bill that he proposed, and now apparently opposes.

So in the sense that he a complete flip-flopper on almost every single issue of importance, I guess he could be considered the candidate of change.

[not fooled]

23. Change of Spouse

Don't forget trading in the old, obsolete spouse for the snazzy new "beer heiress" model. Real testament to character and integrity.:puke:
