'Even More Liberal Than a Guy Who Used to Call Himself a Socialist'

Comparing Obama to Bernie Sanders. Now that's low.
Mr. McCain also brought up, though not by name, the only self-declared socialist in Congress, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, and sought to tie him ideologically to Mr. Obama.

"We know that Sen. Obama has been in the left-hand lane of American politics and he's a taxer and a spender. He is the most liberal senator in the United States Senate, by the way -- even more liberal than a guy who used to call himself a socialist.

"My friends, Sen. Obama wants to be redistributor in chief. I want to be commander in chief."

Mr. McCain also referred to a man he called "Joe the Biden," Mr. Obama's running mate who two weeks ago told a group at a fundraiser that Mr. Obama would likely be tested by an international crisis in the first six months of his presidency.
Speaking of Biden, while Sarah Palin draws overflow crowds across the country, a meager 1500 showed up to see him speaking in his own state. Pathetic.
More than 1,500 people crowded on to the green outside Memorial Hall at the University of Delaware on Friday to hear Biden deliver a message of hope and change.
