Republican Presidential hopeful Sen John McCain (R-AZ) says President Bush's low approval is hurting the party. But he doesn't believe it'll rub off on whoever gets the GOP nomination."I don't think there's any doubt that when the president's polling numbers are low that it harms the Republican Party in general, but I think that when it comes election time that the overwhelming majority of Americans will choose their candidate on the basis of that individual candidate's qualifications, vision and record." -- Sen John McCain (R-AZ) in an interview with The Associated Press."
He's counting on voters looking at the candidates regardless of party affiliation -- and scoring points in the debates to win the White House if he wins the nomination first. (Providence Journal)
