Even GW Bush admits this is true.

"Senator McCain's not here," Bush said of GOP nominee-in-waiting John McCain. "He probably wanted to distance himself from me a little bit."

  The president was hoping to get a laugh from his audience with this one, but, very clearly, the old saw applies here:
  "Many a true word spoken in jest"

    Bush is a liability for the United States. It's no surprise he would be a liability for McCain.

      This should come as no surprise. After all, Bush is the most unpopular president in modern history.
      http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/05/01...
      "A new poll suggests that George W. Bush is the most unpopular president in modern American history. No president has ever had a higher disapproval rating in any CNN or Gallup poll; in fact, this is the first time that any president's disapproval rating has cracked the 70 percent mark.
      The poll also indicates that support for the war in Iraq has never been lower. Thirty percent of those questioned favored the war while 68 percent opposed the conflict."
      McCain spent so much time and energy cuddling up to Bush only to see Bush's unpopularity become a liability for him in the general election.
      LOL.
      If these poll numbers hold, McCain may have to flipflop against Bush after just recently flipflopping for Bush.

    Oh no... Now, I'm just wondering if we'll see a month long melodramatic he-said, he-said, back and forth battle in the media between Bush and McCain over this. Will MSNBC and CNN help poor dumb viewers like me figure out who's "bitter" and who is being "thrown under the bus"? And just what does it mean to "denounce" something, anyway? It's all so confusing... ;-(

      Ah, if only the Repugs got the same media treatment... Dumya would have never been elected, much less twice!

        A wise man once said, never start a war of words with a man who buys ink by the barrel. The Repugs OWN the media. Little surprise it's obsessed with lapel pins and who threw who under the bus.
