McCain is SCUM
Isn't it time for someone to drop McCain off at the dog track?
A McCain or a Lieberman may in fact believe that it's the "right thing to do"... but Clinton?
I'm just baffled by any politician with Presidential ambitions choosing to tie this can to their tail - it's proof that I don't understand how the game is played at their level.
I'll bet this cooks his goose and ends his run for president. It was his whining about opposition campaign that killed him in 2000. Now, here he is whining again, disloyally, to boot. He's done.
I hear you, but I will put the effort into working for a candidate to beat this lunatic so that we do not have to face that scenario. I will vote how I have to if I am faced with that choice... but I will not have to as I have faith that there are far better choices.
mclame is truly the Manchurian Candidate.

I think you are right about McCain, thought I don't know just when.
But the case of Ms. Clinton is even stranger, Clinton is talking about the need for a sustained US deployment in Iraq - a policy opposed by around 85% of Democratic voters.
For starters, how does this translate into success in Democratic primaries?
And, in the general election, if voters still perceive the war as going badly they are unlikely to support a canidate who wants to continue it, and if it’s perceived by the public as going much better in the fall of 2008 than today, that helps the Republican nominee, not the Democrat.
So for someone who’s supposed to be a consummate politician, Clinton’s strikes me as a very strange strategy.
His name is Duncan Hunter and(guess what?) he was in Vietnam too. Unlike McCain, he remains a conservative. See, McCain doesn't own the subject. McCain is a traitor by all means. Now here he goes again.
If you ask me, this will be the year of Cuba. That is just another way of saying that a lot will happen in the next two years. Finally, Clinton probably knows that things in Iraq are a lot better than they are being made out to be.
He is right that Bushies botched the war, but blaming Cheney is just silly. It was Rumsfeld's responsibility that we were insufficiently brutal in Iraq. We should have killed perhaps 200,000 more people, mostly civilians. Our lack of ruthlessness is going to hurt us more and more in the coming years as our "empire" declines.
Ole John McKerry's got his flipflops on just in case.

It is one thing that could get Iraq off the front page. I hope we have a good plan, because I live in Florida.
It will interesting, to say the least. The extent to which we have a "good plan", I suspect, is to the extent that whoever is doing the planning is considering this primarily from the perspective of international rather than domestic politics.
Most Americans take it for granted that we will end up with a post-communist government friendly to our interests, I'm far from certain that's automatically the case.
I think there are a lot of Cuban expats ready to fight. I think it will be every bit as hard a Iraq. Substitute communists for Bathists.
Well, that's a good illustration of our dilemma: the last thing we need is a bunch of Cuban Chalabis operating a para-military force; if they (or we) end up fighting a Cuban Civil war - even a short one - it will be Prima facie evidence of US foreign policy incompetence. A portion of the exile community is interested in settling scores via "victor's justice", immediately reclaiming expropriated property and a lot of of things that would be politically destabilizing during political transition, the overiding US priority is establishing a stable transitional government that forms the basis for a durable political arrangements friendly to the US. From the standpoint of our long term strategic interests we need to keep tight control over the exile community during whatever kind of transition occurs, but there will be enormous domestic political pressure to allow then an independent role.
Hope u be right.
I'm not sure Obama is in the same league as Mrs. Clinton
Remember she use to work for the black Panthers back when they were killing folks.
Also she was the villian behind billy the pervert.
McCain can pound sand. There is no way in hell I'd ever vote for him.
Oh, you want to repress the Americans to accomodate Cubans in the name of stabiity. PU. That stinks.
