Demystifying McCain

Mark Green has this to say about John McCain:

Now that John McCain last week elaborated his economic and foreign policy views in major addresses, the weakness of his candidacy is clear: it's not that he'll be 72 if inaugurated but has a 72 year-old agenda. If you like gunboat diplomacy and pre-Depression laissez-faire economics, McCain is your bridge to the 19th Century.

You can read the rest of this excellent post here. We need to start focussing on the disastrous policy implications of a McCain presidency. The mainstream media prefers to stoke the fires of Obama/Clinton clashes, yet it is still possible to get out the message that McCain would be bad news for this country.
