No one hes a better record of going against his own party and of bipartisanship than he does, and it is frustrating to see that distorted. If you don't agree with him on issues, fine, but let's be honest about his record. Thank you for that. I do question, however, the notion that his campaign is a little racist. No one has brought up race in this campaign except the Obama campaign, so I'm not sure I folow you there.

Yes, McCain has a long history of disagreeing with his party, but not in the last 8 years. It's impossible for him to run away from his 90% voting record with Bush. Whenever he's asked where he would differ economically, he says "I've differed on climate change, spending, the Iraq war, earmarks, blah blah blah blah blah" but never says where they differ on the economy. Can you name a single economic or foreign policy difference between Bush and McCain NOW, not in his past?
