a true AMERICAN PATRIOT! (unlike obama)
he used to be a decent guy in 2000
he has learnt alot from carl rove!
“Maverick,” according to the new Republican Presidential campaign definition, means “not voting with Bush at least 8% of the time!”
He is not a maverick.
just means he’s a lefty.. but it means nothing to me.. he still has the same views as bush..
OBAMA ‘08
He has reached across the aisle to Democrats in his time as Senator, and has made decisions that are not traditionally Republican. He thinks, somehow, that this makes him a maverick. He really just wants to be like his hero – Ronald Reagan.
It sounds like Tom Cruise in TopGun.
I thought Maverick meant you flew a plane with a co-pilot named Goose.
I’m really not sure how any republican can be a “maverick”. By definition it simply doesn’t fit and the family name of Maverick where this term came from isn’t much to happy McCain is using it.
It means that he does what he believes is right and isn’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers if his opinion is unpopular. He’s worked with the Democrats many times to get laws passed he thought were important, even when his own party didn’t approve. Now, remember, he is a politician and a politician can only be unpopular up to a certain extent- he’s probably not a true maverick in the sense of the word.
Personally, I think it just means that he has balls.
It means nothing to me, really, it’s just his catch phrase.
Well…….he has voted with Bush 93% of the time.
I guess you could call him a maverick since he wants to make decisions that the majority of the country wouldn’t agree with.
Like allowing Haliburton to continue getting every contract they can get their greedy hands on.
Oh yeah and don’t forget those tax breaks for the rich!
Here is what Warren Buffet had to say about the wealthy and tax breaks
In October, Buffett issued a challenge to members of the Forbes 400 richest Americans list, saying he would donate $1 million to charity if the collective group (or a significant number of them) would admit they pay less taxes, as a percentage of income, than their secretaries.
Days after issuing the challenge, Buffett appeared before Congress to encourage it to keep the estate tax. Armed with a few Forbes 400 issues, he told the hearing that “dynastic wealth, the enemy of a meritocracy, is on the rise.”
Eh, you’re wrong. Completely wrong. He was a maverick–really. But for the wrong reasons. He liked the attention breaking with the party got him from the media. It gave him an identity and he stuck with it. But he did break with is party, and to claim otherwise is to be ignorant.
It’s an invention that he came up with to try and better his image.
Obviously, all it did was give his supporters something to refer to him as, since they were already referring to Obama as a socialist terrorist who is going to reveal his Muslim allegiance to us all the day after inaugurated.
Yeah, the McCain campaign and supporters are great at coming up with things that aren’t true.
I think that he is trying to say that he is an independent thinker and takes actions he sees as being right and not because someone else is simply thinking or doing the same.
Basically, he is trying to separate himself from Bush because of 90% of the time he was voting and supporting the same things. He wants people to see him as being different and not just “following the pack.”
Yes. He’s a maverick. And I’m Time Lord. It may not be true, but it’s what we paint ourselves to be.
A cigarette, he’s full of smoke and mirrors.
PALIN HAS STRONG ASSOCIATIONS TO THE ALASKA INDEPENDENT PARTY
THAT IS ABOUT AS UN PATRIOTIC AS ONE GET GET.
AND MCCAIN PICKED PALIN WITH OUT VETTING HER.
I CALL THAT ERRATIC
It means he is a “has been” and needs an exciting, broad and vague word to satisfy his delusions of grandeur. Losers are always looking for ways to blow themselves up… look at the terrorists.
