we need to go on the attack

The United States military could stay in Iraq for "maybe a hundred years" and that "would be fine with me," John McCain told two hundred or so people at a town hall meeting in Derry, New Hampshire, on Thursday evening.

the independents in NH will not like that but he says it with an affable smile and the media love him and call him a "maverick". will NH voters fall for it?

Somebody, the grassroots or the campaign need to blow this clip up all over NH media right freaking now. Every voter in NH needs to see this clip.

Add McCain's "bomb Iran" song, Romney's "double" Guantanamo debate quote, and Rudy's plan to increase the size/cost of the military.

Please digg, and remember to favorite it as well, that apparently cancels out any buries it may receive.

If you want this to really spread, hand it to the ones with the big mouths.

Anyone got a Dailykos account that could put it up over there?

He has to hit him hard on this. Not for a gimmick or a strategy, but because the people should know the truth and know how important it is.

BUT much more importantly, he ALSO must, in this debate, and in ads or however for the next few days, hit Obama on the war (not out til at least 2013) (as well as the patriot act, and taxes).

If he (and his Campaign) does not do this strongly, they may be giving up 5-10 or more percentage points. We need boldness and a shouted, strong message that defines him as better and necessary.

I wonder if CNN's political ticker will run it the same
way they and others did about "If fascism comes to America..."

They are probably going to try to ignore it because they dont want shit like that getting out before the debates. So its our job to spread the video everywhere. *Especially* on NH blogs.

This clip would be all over the media if they weren't in bed with the war profiteers.

What does he mean with his qualification "as long as Americans are not getting killed"?

It's just insane . . . why can people not see how far we've fallen from our charter?
