Comments on: McCain On Iraq War: ‘This Issue Isn’t Going To Be Around In 2008′ http://thinkprogress.org/2007/01/03/mccain-iraq-vanity-fair/ Wed, 25 Nov 2009 21:42:44 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Greg Nevins http://thinkprogress.org/2007/01/03/mccain-iraq-vanity-fair/comment-page-2/#comment-1398323 Greg Nevins Sun, 07 Jan 2007 00:22:18 +0000 http://thinkprogress.org/2007/01/03/mccain-iraq-vanity-fair/#comment-1398323 Dems have offered up yet. Hillary is toooo two-faced not to be made into mincemeat by some slick political ad-man. Is there a position she has not flipped on? Obama is the fresh new face that won’t be so fresh in 22 months. Edwards is mealy mouthed, but a brash opportunist. Someone should tell John Kerry he doesn’t have a chance in hell - again. I think this is a very accurate assessment of the Democratic Candidates in 2008, and the reason that the Republican Candidate in 2008 will lead us into VICTORY for the 3rd time in a row!!!!! Mitt Romney, the Governer of MA. will be the Republican Candidate in 2008!!!!!! Dems have offered up yet. Hillary is toooo two-faced not to be made into mincemeat by some slick political ad-man.

Hillary will SAY anything and Promise anything to get Elected!!!! She should run for local Dog Catcher.. Hillary is not a “pro-war” candidate.

She voted for an authorization to use force as a last resort. The resolution also included the stipulations that the administration would go back to the UN for another resolution and report to congress every 60 days on progress in discovering threats to our national security. Hillary says that if she knew then what she knows now, she wouldn't have voted for the resolution. That's pretty clear to me. Edwards says voting for the resolution was a mistake. I agree with that as well. Calling either one of these candidates "pro-war" is a corporate media trick because it blurs the distinctions between these people and real supporters of the war -- republicans.

He has been pandering to special interest, and making it very clear he is only interested in the presidency. He better hope that Iraq is not an issue in 2008, or he is sunk.

The smartest political move I've seen in months is Edwards stressing the idea of the "McCaine Doctrine." Edwards is going to force McCaine to flip-flop one more time on this because, of course, it will not work. It didn't work the last time and it won't work this time.
