McCain Gaffes: A Tough Week In The Youtube Era

"We're going through a process where you get a whole bunch of names, and ya ... Well, basically, it's a Google," McCain said. "You just, you know, what you can find out now on the Internet. It's remarkable, you know."

Manchurian candidate?

Oh McCain!


Can we see some defense for this poor repiglican?

Hard to defend the indefensible.  You haven't bothered to lampoon McCain yet for his gaffe sayng: "I will veto every beer".

How'd you miss that?

The doozy I missed was the one he had in conversation with Matt Latimure on "Today" Wens. when he stated avoiding casualties in Iraq is more important than bringing troops home...  http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5iOhjF56Q7VttEl24KP-3TLhIdhrAD9183IJ80

Despite Cindy McCain copying a Hershey's recipe and acting like it was an old family heirloom, the cookies do sound pretty good.

I really don't care if she stole the recipe from the Keebler elves if they taste good.
Power is nothing till you use it.

I'm for John McCain because he's been a big part of loosening regs on mortgages and opposing the loopholes that created Enron and our current price of a gallon of gas. Well, scratch that last part. Recently, McCaint helped squash the Ag bill that would have closed the Enron Loophole.
But I'm a patriot and scared of Obama and his peacenik liberal minions. McCaint's economic advisers and lobbyists staff are reason enough for my vote. http://www.alternet.org/election08/87999/

Not that it matters because I'm voting in Oklahoma.

Landslide coming.....look out below.

McCain: US winning in Iraq

By BRIAN SCHEID
Bucks County Courier Times

Sen. John McCain said that he is willing to stake his presidential campaign, as well as his political career, on his support for the war in Iraq.

In an interview with reporters on the back of his campaign bus, the "Straight Talk Express" Monday afternoon, McCain said that even in retrospect he would still have voted to authorize the war, as he did in 2002.

"I think there's no question," said the Republican's likely presidential nominee. "I owe too much to these young people who are serving there to let political considerations interfere with what I know is right.

"I believe the American people, over time, will side with me, but if they don't I'll accept that," he said. "I'd much rather lose a political campaign than lose a war."

A Time magazine poll released last week found that 57 percent of Americans felt that America was wrong to go to war with Iraq. A Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll released two days earlier found that 67 percent of Americans believed that the situation in Iraq was not worth going to war for.

While McCain acknowledged that there was "a massive, colossal intelligence failure" that led up to the invasion of Iraq, he said that other countries had gathered the same, false intelligence about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. He said that even with that faulty intelligence he felt the war was justified since Saddam Hussein had twice used weapons of mass destruction, broken international sanctions and was "a threat" to the United States. McCain said that conditions in Iraq would have gotten much worse if Hussein's regime had continued.


"The status quo was not going to prevail in Iraq," McCain said.

McCain said that the current military strategy in Iraq, particularly a troop surge he was initially criticized for supporting, is working.

"Historians will quibble for a long time as to whether we should have gone into Iraq ... that's a matter for historians," McCain said. "What Americans care about is whether we will come home with victory and honor or whether we will be defeated. That's the difference between my position and Senator [Barack] Obama's position. That's the difference."

Obama, the Democrat's likely presidential nominee, has called for a phased redeployment of American troops out of Iraq. Monday, McCain said Obama has "a total lack of understanding of the situation" in Iraq and criticized Obama for only visiting Iraq once and never meeting with Army Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq.

McCain, who was in Bucks County Monday for the first time since he campaigned for then-Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick at a rally in Upper Makefield in 2006, said he felt that he could win Pennsylvania, even though no Republican presidential candidate has won in this state in 20 years.

"I realize it's an uphill battle and I'm the underdog in this race," he said. "I'm confident that we can carry Pennsylvania, but I just have a lot of work to do."

Wow.  Obama has set a timeline for withdrawl and he's never so much as had a meeting with Gen. Petraeus?

He might just be as young and naive as he looks.
