McCain - Better than the Worst?
On the campaign trail in Pennysylvania yesterday, Obama said: “Either Democrat would be better than John McCain, and all three of us would be better than George Bush.”
Clinton, now in perpetual attack mode, addressed her supporters with this response: “We need a nominee who will take on John McCain, not cheer on John McCain.”
Cheer on?
Bush will in all likelihood be tagged with “Worst President Ever,” so saying McCain would be better than him is hardly a cheer, it’s more like a backhanded compliment. Clinton had to recognize it as such but she’s desperate, so she’ll take anything Obama says and twist it around to suit her purposes.
Since becoming the nominee, McCain has learned to campaign like a true Republican - with the expected rigt-wing red baiting. You can waste your time reading his remarks in the story link, or you can read a good opinion piece about right-wing red baiting here.
