Re: If the election was held today
 

mccain voted with his party about 85% of the time, obama voted with his 97%.

so yeah, in relative terms mccain is a maverick and obama is someone who hasn't really reached across party lines. that doesn't guarantee future voting patterns, but it is an indication.

Maybe if Republicans had any sort of issues worth voting for he would have [URL="http://www.votesmart.org/voting_category.php?can_id=9490"]voted more[/URL] with Republicans?

How many times do people have to correct this before people listen? This is why there is political propaganda because people like NMredskin don't listen when the truth comes out, and they will believe any crap they see.

Since you've either clearly missed, or ignored it NMredskin, McCain voted with Bush 90% of the time only 1 year out of the 8 Bush has been office. Wasn't even close in the other years. We won't even get into the massive percentage Obama has voted with his party lines. The left threw up some junk, and you bought it hook line and sinker.[/quote]

Get your facts straight, it was 95% of the time in 2007 and voted with his party 90 % of time.

Its not fair, the mean media.

So your saying that McCain voted 90% over the Bush term?

Same here except when I selected mccain the vote total just didn't change.

Well it's a permanent penalty for voting Republicans to make up for 2000.

[quote=NM Redskin;477696][b]Voting with Bush, 90% makes you a maverick?[/b] A governor with more earmark requests per person than any other state makes you a maverick? Ummm ok.[/quote]

Is this not what you said?
Funny how you try to use a link to prove yourself right, when in fact you proved yourself wrong.
"However, McCain's support of President Bush's position has been as low as 77 percent (in 2005), and his support for his party's position has been as low as 67 percent (2001)."

I messed up when I said 90% when I should have put 95%, I've read that link on fact check about 10 times. So with the exception of that mess up, my last quote was right on.

Yes, I was incorrect with the 90%...I mixed the numbers up as my last post attests to, however, do not tell me to get my facts straight, when your "facts" are waaaaay off.
1- this post is not what you said in your previous post.
2- You are still missing the point that McCain did not vote with Bush as much as you think. (your own link would have taught you that if you read it.)
