What McCain won’t say: We need boots on the ground in Syria... so they can get gassed, and then the American public will be outraged enough to support the bigger goal: boots on the ground in Iran...
No one has considered that Syria’s Air Defense systems were supplied by Russia, and probably manned by Russians. What will happen when we start killing Russians??

Rebuffing Obama, McCain a No-Vote on Syria
Sen. John McCain pulled his support Wednesday for the Senate resolution authorizing limited strikes in Syria, a blow to President Barack Obama’s campaign to get congressional approval for military action in the war-torn country.

I question whether this is a blow and a rebuff to Obama. This may be more of the good cop/bad cop routine that Obama and McCain have been carrying on for weeks.
