Boehner responds to Obama's 'person of color' joke

McCain Further Distance From Bush

Recently, Senator McCain criticized Bush for "Spending, the conduct of the war in Iraq for years, growth in the size of government, larger than any time since the Great Society, laying a $10 trillion debt on future generations of America, owing $500 billion to China, obviously, failure to both enforce and modernize the [financial] regulatory agencies that were designed for the 1930s and certainly not for the 21st century, failure to address the issue of climate change seriously."

"Those are just some of them," McCain said, laughing.

Polls have shown that Bush is a heavy drag on the GOP ticket.
