...Iraq - one to two brigades per month - that is probably untenable. But McCain has a more significant disadvantage: most Americans are sick of the war and do not want to hear his wildly unrealistic bottom line - that the U.S. needs a long-term military presence in that perpetually brutal noncountry. On taxes, McCain is likely to find himself debating ... himself. He was against the Bush tax cuts before he was for them.
