McCain makes unannounced stop in Iraq.

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) “arrived in Baghdad on Sunday for a surprise visit with Iraqi and American diplomatic and military leaders,” a U.S. official said. “This is his eighth visit to Iraq. He’s accompanied by Sens. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., and Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. Before the trip McCain said the visit was a fact-finding venture, not a campaign photo opportunity.”
