RAW DOGMA                                                                           written by Nkrumah Steward
Bush McCain Push Polling!

Up until Bush lost New Hampshire to Senator John McCain, Bush was calling Senator McCain his friend. Then the bitch started to come out in him. Once Bush saw what he had to lose, Bush started “Push” polling. Bush knows that if McCain wins in South Carolina that could be the bounce that carries him over Michigan and McCain’s home state of Arizona and leave the Bush campaign in serious trouble. McCain said that Bush had crossed the line with his push polls and television advertisements.

The Republican Golden boy Bush, the darling of the great state of Texas, the ready made choice of the republican money elite since this time last year has been tested soundly by McCain.  McCain has given republican voters a choice at the polls and that is something that the republican elite didn’t want to happen.

Push polls, for those of you that are unfamiliar with modern-day American politics, is when a candidate conducts a poll in which he asks loaded questions aimed at defaming his opponent. It’s a nice way of disguising the spread of disinformation. Here is an example of the line of questioning Bush's campaign has been asking registered voters in South Carolina. ``Do you support McCain's effort to pass the largest tax increase in history?'' and ``Do you agree with McCain's plan to give more power to the media and unions to pick the president?'' Last week Bush called him friend. Now he calls him Chairman McCain in some attempt to illustrate that he is an outsider while McCain is a Washington “insider”. 

You would think that after a pair of sound defeats from an overweight, adulterous, liar from Arkansas, the Republicans would have learned something about the American people and how they view their politicians. Negative campaigning only ends up making you both look like losers. It confuses the public into not knowing who to believe and in the end, further contributing to the rampant cynicism which plagues the political system of the greatest democracy on Earth.

After hearing Bush call McCain a liar and a cheat, and McCain calling Bush a cocaine addicted frat boy, who are you going to choose, and better yet are you going to be happy with that decision? Bush denied he was engaged in push polls and vowed to fire anyone associated with his campaign who did any such thing. 8BM.com Translation: I will fire whatever dumb ass actually gets caught push polling, seeing that I am not even going to bother inquiring about a policy that I myself authorized in my campaign.

McCain said on a South Carolina radio show, ``I'm calling on my good friend George Bush to stop this now. Stop this now. He comes from a better family. He knows better than this. He should stop it. I'll pull down every negative ad that I have. I want this thing stopped.''  Good luck McCain, this is the son of the man who’s campaign gave us Willie Horton commercials, he has learned from the best. This is going to be a dog fight!
