McCain is really going after Romney

McCain is really going after Romney. First we had the comparison to Kerry in the remake of the windsurfing ad, now he's saying Romney wanted to pull out of Iraq.
John McCain accused Mitt Romney of wanting to withdraw troops from Iraq, drawing immediate protest from his Republican presidential rival who said: "That's simply wrong and it's dishonest, and he should apologize."

I'd love to see the McCain internal polling. Surely it shows McCain trailing (why else do all this?,) but more curiously, does it show a "wimp factor" in Romney's perception or is this just the attack they have available?

(I also find it historically interesting that John Kerry is such an effective insult among the Florida GOP.)

  • McCain is getting to be a bit of a one-trick pony. OK...Victory in Iraq....anything else?

  • Everything else he's got is "independent" from the Republican party, so.... no.

  • So all that sucking up the late Jerry Falwell seems to have been for naught. Don't hear much fundi love coming from McC, though I haven't been listening that closely.

  • No, he's trying to work the other side now going after the non religious right.
