In 2004, one of the great weapons used against Kerry was that the was a ‘flip-flopper’ or that he changed his position on issues out of political expediency. We can thank Kerry for the whole “I was for it before I was against it” thing.
Lucky for us, McCain has had a lot of different positions on different issues, and I’ll be pointing those out as they arise, but this one is priceless.
John McCain on the estate tax in 2005?
I follow the course of a great Republican, Teddy Roosevelt, who talked about the malefactors of great wealth and gave us the estate tax. I oppose the rich passing on fortunes.
John McCain on the estate tax in 2008?
The estate tax is one of the most unfair tax laws on the books.
This promises to be a really fun five months.

Dude! Let’s get our flip-flop costumes and head up to the Republican National Convention! Do you remember how, during the last convention, everytime Kerry’s name was mentioned, the crowd would chant “Flip Flop?” Oh boy, that drove me bonkers!

Ha! Yeah, we do need to get out our flip-flops signs.
Have you seen Neil Young’s “Let’s Impeach the President” video? Part of the footage is of GOPers using flip flops at the GOP convention.
Horrible!
But, maybe we can use that stuff to our advantage this time???
