Don’t be fooled, John McCain is no moderate. He is much like conservative ideologue George Bush. McCain is as pro-war as they come, an anti-abortion activist; forget a woman’s freedom of choice and Roe vs. Wade under John McCain as president. McCain now loves those Bush tax cuts for the wealthy which endears him to anti-tax conservatives.
The “Mac Is Back” campaign slogan is perfect: With John McCain as president George Bush would be back in the White House. There is little or no difference between the two Republicans.
