Did you know that President Bush has spent one-third of his presidency on vacation? CNN commentary Jack Cafferty compared Bush with McCain in his column today and came up with this conclusion: McCain will be more of the same.

As an example of McCain = Bush, Cafferty noted the 72-year old Republican candidate limits his campaign events to one a day and takes weekends off. (Yeah, just like my grandpa used to do with chores around the house.) He also said that McCain lacks the intellect to run a nation.

From Cafferty's column: http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/08/18/cafferty.mccain/index.html?eref=rss_politics

John McCain graduated 894th in a class of 899 at the Naval Academy at Annapolis. His father and grandfather were four star admirals in the Navy. Some have suggested that might have played a role in McCain being admitted. His academic record was awful. And it shows over and over again whenever McCain is called upon to think on his feet.

He no longer allows reporters unfettered access to him aboard the "Straight Talk Express" for a reason. He simply makes too many mistakes. Unless he's reciting talking points or reading from notes or a TelePrompTer, John McCain is lost. He can drop bon mots at a bowling alley or diner -- short glib responses that get a chuckle, but beyond that McCain gets in over his head very quickly.

Hit the link, Cafferty's column will make you think.
