McCain - Not voting on Iraq!
Since the beginning of the year, McCain has been a profile in courage when it comes to Iraq. :sarcasm:

To the contrary of Hagel, who is talking tough against the war, but votes nearly systematically with the GOP, McCain is talking for Bush but has been absent of nearly all the votes concerning Iraq:

He is hiding behind his engagements for the campaign to avoid these votes, probably hoping that the absence of a vote will allow him plausible deniability if necessary.

I hope that the Democrats are taking notes and that, when the time comes, the attack ads will start.

1. I have no doubt people are noticing his absences, and collecting
their ammo.
