Say it Loud: '08 McCain is Wrong

Democratic Governor Bill Richardson of New Mexico:

The leading advocate for escalating the war is Senator John McCain. I have served with John in Congress and I respect him. But John McCain is wrong, dead wrong to think that we can solve Iraq’s political crisis through military escalation.

There are no quick or easy answers to the crisis in Iraq. Our choices are between bad options and worse ones. Some prefer military escalation. Some choose staying the course. These options are illusions. The only realistic choice we have is to stand down militarily and let the Iraqis stand up and face the political crisis which only they can resolve.

It's about time leading Democrats take Saint John McCain head on and point out the obvious about the Senator and this disastrous Iraq views. There might have been a time long ago that the Senator actually deserved respect, but not now. John '08 McCain is a proven pander, a man without principles willing to travel any filthy sewer in order to become President.
