John McCain is SUCH a vulnerable candidate ripe for such a plethora of targeting this season – which is why Its so stupid for so many campaign operatives to keep pounding this smear about the “100 year war”. I mean jee-zuuuuus. enough already. It’s so easy to expose as a smear. Quit hurting yourselves by using it!
Quick background on that for those of you that are unaware: at a townhall meeting, McCain answered a question by saying he was okay with us literally being in Iraq (not fighting a war like we are now) for a long ass time just like we still have bases in Japan and Germany. Watch the video here. Soon after he snagged the nomination, a popular attack line has been to scare people into thinking he wants to keep blowing shit up for 100 years (they do this obviously by failing to mention the part where he said “as long as they’re not being killed or injured” – paraphrase).
