In Pennsylvania today, Obama contradicted one of the Democrat’s key campaign messages when he said that John McCain would be a better president than George W. Bush. "Either Democrat would be better than John McCain," he said. "And all three of us would be better than George Bush."
The Democrats have been busy arguing that a McCain presidency would just be a third term for Bush and so Obama’s remarks will be seen as a gaffe. But I actually think Obama is being shrewd, the charge that McCain is the same as Bush is just not going to stick so moving off it is sensible. But the McCain camp will be glad to have this on the record.
