The Bush Assist

By The Daily Dish

David Corn likewise thinks that Bush's words have helped Obama:

Bush probably thought, "Well, I showed him." But any Bush versus Obama narrative assists Obama tremendously. Most Americans clearly would relish voting against Bush, were they able to. If Bush makes it seem that a vote for Obama is a vote against Bush, McCain is screwed.

Nate is more hesitant and suggests watching the McCain Obama tracking polls over the next week or so. I find it hard to credit the notion that anyone would take this president's views on foreign policy seriously.
