They both flip flop an awful lot. They're politicians and that's what they do. The issue at hand is that the Bush campaign is doing it's best to focus people on superficial things like stirring up an untrue military quagmire and attacking their opponent on reconsidering his stances. That's because, on a policy standpoint, their administration has little to nothing to offer the vast majority of US citizens. I mean... seriously. Bush's economic plans have been heavily criticized by economists, while Kerry's preliminary plans have received the seal of approval from 10 nobel laureates in Econ. Who do you think has the better plan?
