just watched the press conference where Mccain and Bush had their chitchat bout Bush supporting McCain's candidacy...

aside from McCain being republican, aside from agenda, i felt he didn't have a strong presence..

You can argue that he's standing next to the president , and Bush is a big shot and what not
but McCain is supposed to replace Bush, same spot

So i felt he came over pretty weak
first question : How will this go down, when everybody want's change?
Bush answers, with the bogstandard spin "steadfast, evildoe'ers, yaddiyaddiyaadi, McCain will do just fine on that
McCain just mumbles" i don't have anything to add"

swell

second question :i kinda forgot what they asked
McCain mumbles something about how great it is , and how he's glad that Bush will campain for him , if he's not to busy and what not...


i zoned out, seriously , he came over as a lackey to Bush... like Medvedev in Russia who is brought forward to take over from Putin...

was he McCain star struck or something?? what's he going to do when he is the president and some other strong character who he has to negotiate and deal with comes forward??
