I am amused to see John McCain realign his campaign to be pretty much whatever platform Barack Obama campaigns on in the last week or two. When McCain is not being negative, he is chasing the platform of the Democratic party. It is unfortunate that he is seemingly unable to recognize the wants and needs of the populace without the guiding hand of his opposition. The only major difference is the accusation of the Democrats being the tax and spend party. John McCain and the Republicans clearly believe in spending without taxation, thereby leaving the bill - with interest - to future generations to pay. My 14 year old son was extremely upset when I explained to him that the Bush Bucks we received in July would have to be paid back by him and his brother because the President didn't believe in the country paying it's way as we went along. It's a terrible thing to tax and spend. It's much worse to spend without tax.
