What an unoriginal, unimaginative ass McCain is
He's using the same tired flip-flop crap against Obama that his hero Chimpy used against Kerry. Considering his own many REAL flip-flops, this is a dangerous road for him to travel.

McCain doesn't have an imaginative bone in his entire body.

1. Current Yahoo news headline says people associate "old" with McCain
http://news.yahoo.com/page/election-2008-political-pulse-candidate-images

Which I equate with folks saying they are tired of the same old stuff.

Quotes from the article:

"My husband and I are about the same age as McCain, and I don't think we'd be in a position to take this country in the direction it needs to go," said Rosemary Bates, 65, of Barre, Vt., an Obama supporter. "We've grown up in a different era. Something is not working and it needs to be changed."

snip

McCain has problems lurking, too. Six in 10 think he will follow the policies of the widely disliked President Bush, including more than half of whites, three in 10 Republicans and nearly six in 10 independents. That's a linkage Obama is sure to emphasize in hopes of fraying McCain's support.

"I think it's important we send the rest of the world a message that we're taking ourselves in a new direction away from the Bush administration," said Rachel Ferdaszewski, 26, an independent from Tacoma, Wash., who is leaning toward Obama.

In addition, respondents who are either undecided or say they could change their minds are as likely as everyone else to volunteer "old" when describing McCain _ not the attribute his campaign wants them focused on. So do one in seven independents, a significant number.
