McCain: "Obama would rather lose a war in order to win a political campaign”

McCain risked his political future just to be right on Iraq. Obama can't say the same!

If you haven't seen Wordsmith's report on Obama still insisting that even though the surge worked he would still have opposed it if we had to do it all over again.

This calls to question the "judgement" that Obama claims makes him fit to lead.

McCain is hitting back hard (finally):





McCain: "I had the courage and political judgement to say that I would rather lose a political campaign than lose a war. It seems to me Senator Obama would rather lose a war in order to win a political campaign."
