Speaking of “Worse than Bush”
Posted on January 28th, 2008 by Steve Skojec
Pat Buchanan lends some insight into why we really, really shouldn’t want McCain to win:
The three issues that ruined the Bush presidency are this misbegotten war in Iraq, the failure to secure America’s borders from invasion and a mindless trade policy that has destroyed the dollar and left foreigners with $5 trillion to buy up America at fire-sale prices.
McCain remains an unthinking advocate of all three.
But where Bush was at his best, on taxes and judges, McCain was collaborating with Hillary. The question conservatives may face if McCain is nominated is not whom should I vote for, but should I vote.

I too worry about McCain. Sadly, a friend of mine, who actually identifies as paleoconservative and whom I thought I’d sold Ron Paul to rather well, decided on a whim to send in an absentee ballot for John McCain! For the reasons cited by Buchanan, I fail to see his reasoning, beyond that he is fairly honest about the bad policies he wishes to pursue.
