McCain is not a leader, he's a follower.

He's waiting for Obama/Dems to take a move and following his lead.

A few examples:

* The message of change
* A woman candidate
* Laying out principles for the bail out plan
* Given a presser after Obama on said bail out plan

Also John Kerry called for a "surge" in 04 with the help of international forces.

I am forgetting a few things, feel free to add to my short list.

I think we need an new campaign ad stating how McCain is "following" Obama's lead. ;)

1. He's not even a "follower". He's an incompetent, desperate plagiarizer.

2. Yea, but "follower" is so much easier to pronounce.

3. Obama should totally go after this in an eviscerating series of ads...

Just show clip after clip (with date/time info on the screen) of Obama putting out a plan, a policy, or a position. The next clip would be of McCain attempting to co-op said position hours or days later. Cut back to Obama's next policy position. Cut to McCain again attempting to co-opt it. Again and again and again...

It's really quite damning.

4. I fully agree.
