Maverick or McBush?

John McCain is going to get hit with one attack over and over again. That he will be extending President Bush's failed foreign policy and fiscal policies. Both Democratic candidates have already said it, and McCain can expect to keep on hearing it.

In an effort to fend this off, McCain gave a major foreign policy speech this week. The speech laid out more a complete world view that sees the United States as a strong member of the global community, out of the Harry Truman mold. It was a good speech and it should soothe independents not sure one whether they were buying the "Maverick" brand or the "McBush" brand. The snippet below heartened me. I have missed the Maverick and I hope he's here to stay.
