Kerry: McCain does not represent a break from Bush-Cheney

By Jeremy P. Jacobs, PolitickerMA.com Reporter

U.S. Sen. John Kerry said Sunday that Republican presidential nominee John McCain would continue the same policies implemented by Republican President George W. Bush.

Kerry, a frequent surrogate for Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, appeared on NBC's Meet the Press in the show's final episode before the election on Tuesday.

"John McCain does not represent a break with George Bush," the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee said. "I mean, yesterday he was endorsed by Dick Cheney. He earned that endorsement by supporting this administration 90 percent of the time."

Kerry, a Boston Democrat, also criticized McCain for running a negative campaign. "This has been one of the most divisive campaigns in history," he said. "John McCain he wanted this campaign to be about big ideas and he wanted it to respect the American people's desire not to be negative. It's been the most negative--100 percent of his advertising is negative."

Meet the Press host Tom Brokaw began the interview by referencing a conversation he had with Kerry at this point in 2004 in which Kerry said that no incumbent president "below the 50 percent threshold" had ever been re-elected. Osama Bin Laden released a videotape two days later, Brokaw recalled, which many believed influenced the election. Brokaw asked Kerry what the Obama campaign can learn from those events.

"The Obama campaign is practicing a cautionary lesson by working, working, working," Kerry replied. "I mean, the bottom line is you take nothing for granted. And I know that the candidate, every member of the campaign, and all of his supporters are taking nothing for granted."
