McCain Distances Himself from Bush on Climate. By Elisabeth Bumiller, NYTimes, May 14, 2008. "Senator John McCain intensified his criticism of President Bush and the administration's environmental polices on Tuesday, taking a walk in the cold, rain-drenched foothills of the Cascade Mountains [in Washington state] and asserting that in the effort to stem climate change, 'America can lead and not obstruct'... McCain... declared that 'the president and I have disagreed on this issue for many years'... 'There is a longstanding, significant, deep, strong difference on this issue'... McCain was on his second day of a trip to the Pacific Northwest, a potential swing region in the November election, to promote his plan to slow global warming and appeal to the region's many independent voters."
