Do You Consider Mccain To Be Too Similar To Bush?

I do find the two too similar. Neither one has taken a strong stance on illegal immigration, neither one is fiscally responsible, neither are conservative. President Bush showed promise while running, Senator McCain is doing the same. However, I could be wrong, and should McCain win and prove me wrong, I will admit it.

I think McCain is his own man and that he will approach the presidency with significantly different attitudes than President Bush has. He is right to want to continue the Iraq war until the great issues of disorder are significantly resolved over there. I believe it was a good thing for the USA to intervene over there and rid the world of the significant terrorist threat that existed in Sadaam Hussein. However, we must realize that after his deposition Iraq was left without a government. In my opinion, for the USA to pull out of Iraq prematurely would only hand the country over to the terrorist factions we have fought to dispossess, and it would mean the blood of countless US soldiers has been shed in vain, if we don't finish the job. I also think McCain has a good chance of winning the presidency because he does represent change. Maybe some of the republicans that nominated him don't want the changes he is proposing, but I think he is capable of winning them over because he has a level head.
