So says Arianna Huffington:

The fact that this man was so angry at what George Bush had done to him, and at what Bush represented for their party, that he did not even vote for him in 2000 shows just how far he has fallen since then in his hunger for the presidency. By abandoning his core principles and embracing Bush — both literally and metaphorically — he has morphed into an older and crankier version of the man he couldn’t stomach voting for in 2000.

Greg Pollowitz points out that, at an event sponsored by Huffington herself, McCain gave a speech that doesn’t exactly match up with the bitterness and angst she’s charging McCain with now.

But does this really matter?  It seems these liberals need to be reminded again and again that George W. Bush isn’t on the ballot this election season, and that there are plenty of reasons to dislike John McCain without having to go all Freud on his relationship with Bush the Younger.
