You know, when push comes to shove I agree with McCain fans on this point. I'm still a little confused though why he wants to stay in Iraq. I kind of hope he is just saying that because he doesn't want to appear like he is undermining Bush.

Where I stray away from McCain the most is on other issues. Other than his undeniably impressive background and resume and his committment to campaign finance reform (its too bad he hasn't continued to fight this, though), I don't think he would be a good leader for other reasons. I doubt he would lead our country out of what seems like an inevitable recession and I doubt he sees the status quo of economic disparity and widening wealth gap a problem that needs fixing.
