He did not like Bush, but he actually appears to be a fiscally conservative person if you extrapolate from his movie roles. However, he appears to be antiSemiticand anti religion from things he has stated in public.
McCain did while Bush was in office. Hard to say if he would now, as McCain has become a moderate, and is no longer viewed as an unshakeable conservative by most of his party.
Ronald Reagan couldn't work things out with Ford. George Bush was available so he went with him as a second choice.
Bush was clearly a moderat LIBERAL. He would probably be considered a traditional liberal, because of his disatrous ultra-liberal economic policies, and his Neo-con stance on foreign policy, which is traditionally farily liberal. However, he was fairly right on social issues and so he would probably be fairly described as a Moderate Liberal who chose the wrong party, similar to John McCain
