VT Dems slam McCain

The Vermont Democratic Party is slamming John McCain today.

“Unlike John McCain and Jim Douglas, Vermonters think it’s time for Iraq to take care of Iraq and for America to confront the challenges we face at home and refocus our energies on building a brighter future for all Americans,” said Vermont Democratic Party Chair Ian Carleton. “On the war, SCHIP and tax cuts, McCain is out of touch with Vermonters and the majority of Americans who are demanding a real change in priorities. McCain's policies offer little more than a third term for President Bush. It is troubling, if not surprising, that Vermont's governor would put partisan allegiances ahead of the best interests of Vermonters. Why is our governor supporting four more years of the Bush policies that have done real damage to our state?”
