    Tucker Eskew

    You should've mentioned that Tucker Eskew isn't just any Bush strategist...he was one of Bush's top men in South Carolina during the 2000 Primary - you remember that one right? The one where Bush's team started spreading the rumour that McCain had an illegitimate black child?

    Remember now?

    I guess when McCain said that there was a special place in hell for those people, he was talking about his own campaign.

    Think about that for a moment...he has now hired the very same man who slimed him so mercilessly 8 years ago. McCain may have been a moral man at one time, but he most certainly is not anymore.
