"Yes We Can" Meets "Yes Washington Can"

This is a great article from Alex Castellanos a Romney advisor. He tells how Obama turned from JFK style populism that lifted up the voter to the same old Liberal BS of big government taxing the crap out of you just so some corrupt bureaucrat can squander your money.

Barack Obama may believe "change doesn't come from the top down, it comes from the bottom up," but the leadership of his party doesn't. The national Democratic establishment, from the Daily Kos and MoveOn.org to Pelosi and Reid in Congress, still believe in top-down big-government from Washington, especially if they get to run the factory. Politically, they are industrial-age dinosaurs.

They believe the era of big government is back, not over. They would keep money and power in their hands, not devolve it to the average American. That was not something the Denver Democrats were eager to confess.

That is how McCain is currently running as a change agent and trying to distance himself from Bush. We had big government and wasteful spending as well as corrupt bureaucrats under Bush and McCain will clean it up. Under Obama we will have big government and wasteful spending but this time not on the War on Terror (which is actually keeping us safe) but on the Socialized Health Care (which will guarantee another terrorist attack in Obamas first term.)
