"It's a tough war we're in. It's not going to be over right away. There's going to be other wars." Offering more of his increasingly bleak "straight talk," he repeated the claim: "I'm sorry to tell you, there's going to be other wars. We will never surrender but there will be other wars."

- John McCain, February 3rd 2008
I would love a commercial by Mitt Romney saying that he is going to do the same thing that Bush did, and try every diplomatic option with-in reason, and that it is irresponsible to say "there will be more wars". This goes to the heart of why I don't want to vote for John McCain. He is not putting forth an intelligent argument trying to predict that there will be more wars; he is trying to position himself as the know-it all tough-guy. "Yep, there is going to be more wars, but don't you worry there little missy, I'll take care of you."
David Petraeus doesn't say, "there are going to be more wars." President Bush doesn't say, "there are going to be more wars". The Defense Department and State Department don't tell us there are going to be more wars. But John McCain knows more than them all put together. Do you see what a train wreck this is going to be? John McCain has spent 25 years in congress out positioning people politically. Saying the right thing to get elected. If he wins he will go from having a staff of 2 to 6 people, to running the largest organization on the planet. His job will be to collect the brightest people on the planet and trying to prevent more wars. That's what he is going to do right?
Right?
