Outside of a Hillary/Obama presidency, IMHO the absolute worst outcome would be McCain. Yes, far and above worse than Rudy. Rudy is pretty honest about what he’s for and against, as is Mitt. But McClame is unbalanced and devious. He would have the worst elements of Bush’s “new tone” with the most sinister Nixonian/Clinton traits. Not a good combo.
This has to be one of the more careless McCain digs I’ve come across, that McCain will continue Bush’s “New Tone.” McCain may be many things but he is also a wild card, and for one, vowing to make prokbarrelers “famous” hardly sounds like a continuation of Bush’s “New Tone.” In fact, his campaign sounds far more reformist.
