My favorite parts:
Well, it's not exactly what they did to McCain. Nobody's accused you of having an illegitimate love child
Not yet. I'm waiting for those. That's probably August or September.
I'll tell you what. What's really so craven about it is that they pick something that they implement badly and screw up, like Iraq or No Child Left Behind or the Patriot Act. And when you point out that they screwed it up, they say that you're "flip-flopping."
But they, on the other hand, break a promise to have no deficit, break a promise not to invade Social Security, break a promise to fund No Child Left Behind, break a promise to introduce the four-pollutant bill and move forward on the environment, break a promise to deal with the real health issues and prescription drugs, break a promise of humility in American foreign policy. I mean, you start running down the list -- I've never seen a grander array of flip-flops. This is the biggest "say one thing, do another" administration in modern history
and this:
Does Bush understand what's going on here? Does he have the capacity to understand that people change their minds when confronted with new circumstances? Or is he so consumed with consistency, with staying the course, that he can't see that?
You have to go ask him. I'm not making any judgments about him on a personal level. I'm simply talking about the differences we have in terms of policy.
I think it's important to talk about my vision of the country. I'm offering real plans, real options and choices to make American stronger. And they're real. My healthcare plan really does lower the cost of healthcare for Americans. My education plan is going to liberate communities from the burden of special needs and help them afford after-school programs and things they need to do. My foreign policy plan is going to make America stronger in the world and deal with terror more effectively. These are the things Americans want, and that's exactly what I'm going to do.
Staying positive, optimistic, emphasizing policy differences. Very presidential, don't you think?
