McCain Wants To Be Like George.

Two years to go and already the battle is brewing over who will get the Republican’s nomination for the White House in 2008:

Republican Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts raised cash for his campaign committee on Monday in what is shaping up as enemy territory — the home state of potential 2008 presidential rival John McCain of Arizona.

Romney held a fundraiser in Phoenix, a foray that Romney’s staff says highlights his ability to compete in Southwestern and Mountain states. They are home not only to McCain and a coveted bloc of Republican-leaning voters, but also many of Romney’s fellow Mormons.

It is McCain whom Romney singled out when the governor announced in December he would not seek a second term this year. Unlike the senator, who once joked he thought about being president “every day in the shower,” Romney said his interest was more like the movie “Star Wars:” “It’s in a galaxy far, far away.”

Interesting little rivalry going on there, but what is McCain doing. Well let’s have a look, shall we? (via Talking Points Memo).

John McCain once called Jerry Falwell an “agent of intolerance.” Now he’s going to be the graduation speaker at Jerry’s Liberty University.

So McCain is going to take the old “be more like Bush” route in trying to win the bid. Is he really this stupid or has senility set in? Most Republicans are trying to distance themselves from Bush and his load of failing policies. The Republicans are starting to show a campaign strategy this year of running on a platform that states “we are not Bush”. McCain taking this route is nothing more then helping his opponents.

True considering McCain is listed as the front runner for Republicans, this is an even bigger boost to the Democrats in 08. Let him keep cloning Bush and before you know it we will have a Democrat in the White House. Things are looking good for our side.
