Re: "I still can't understand the voters who decided, at the last minute, that Bush wasn't such a bad guy"

They were helped along by the likes of Chris Matthews with his "the guy everyone wants to have a beer with) lines.

And, considering that John McCain considers the Media as "his base" it will happen again this Fall. Watch for Mr. Matthews to start gushing about what a "swell" guy John McCain is after labor Day. al it will take is a few more McCain Family Barbecues.

Not if the McCain campaign is unable to persuade people that he is not another Bush administration....
