For Democrats, Independents, and the majority of Republicans who are fed up with the GOP, a handbook for the most important election in our lifetime. With the indispensable chapters: The John McCain Quiz and Things John McCain is Older Than. In details that will surprise even close followers of the political scene, veteran political strategist Paul Begala thoroughly makes the case that John McCain would be a third term for George W. Bush. He explodes the myth that John McCain is a maverick, and proves powerfully that he's just four more years of the same old thing.
What an amazingly scary, Bush-like record Senator McCain has! Begala supports his statements with thirty pages of references, including many of McCain's Senate votes. No wonder groups looking out for seniors, children, veterans, and the environment rate McCain so low! This is a well-organized, clearly written, helpfully indexed book that I hope every open-minded voter reads.

Paul Begala once again brings the truth to light like no other Texan can. Thank you for writing a book that really allows for some clear thought around the real responsibility of the CEO of our country. I will be sure to send this book far and wide to everyone (and there are still some out there) who thinks that McCain is an independent. "Keep Hope Alive"
A must-read for very undecided voter

If anyone is skeptical that a John McCain presidency would be a third term for George W. Bush, this book is sure to change your mind. FIVE STARS.

Paul has hit the nail on the head. McCain is no maverick, he is Bush third term. McCain has voted with Bush you can't tell them apart. The conservatives don't want to see anything negative in McCain. Buy this book you won't regret it. Don't listen to the people here that obviously haven't read it.
Begala Does It Again

Combining his trademark wit with some pretty meticulous research, this book once again shows why Paul Begala is, in my opinion, the best mind we've got in the Democratic Party. He completely debunks the Maverick Myth and relentlessly takes shot after shot at the Bush-McCain policy agenda. Best of all, it's clear that Paul relishes the fight. It's about time Democrats stood up, fought back, and called McCain out for what he has long since become - a George W. Bush, right-wing Republican. Thanks, Paul, for calling a spade a spade.
