Who has the video of McCain telling Bush to apologize in 2000
for smearing (via push polls) McCains family.

I've seen it before. It was during one of their debates.

I'm just about to own a McCain/Bush apologist.

2. I think the RNC 'disappeared' the video. But here is some print stuff

Mr. McCain, for his part, pressed his demand for an apology from Mr. Bush for a rally in Sumter, S.C., last week during which Mr. Bush smilingly accepted endorsements and plaudits from military veterans who lambasted Mr. McCain's record on veterans' issues. Mr. McCain spent five and a half years as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.

The McCain campaign also accused people affiliated with the Bush campaign of conducting ''push polls,'' or telephone surveys with loaded questions that are meant to disparage an opponent. The Bush campaign said that it was not, but that the McCain campaign was. <SNIP>

<SNIP>In their last debate before the make-or-break South Carolina primary, Republican John McCain demanded an apology from rival George W. Bush over his campaign tactics.
"You should be ashamed," the Arizona senator told Mr. Bush, referring to the remarks of a veterans' group representative who accused Mr. McCain of abandoning veterans.
Mr. Bush did not apologize and said he should not be held responsible for the remarks of a surrogate.<SNIP>
