Poulos lays out what McCain should do:
McCain can lose more independents by getting stupid on Iraq than he can lose Republicans by getting smart. Under the circumstances. And under related ones — in the totality of them, if you like — McCain has nothing to lose by glomming onto Obama/Maliki on Iraq. He can draw a host of other important distinctions. He can question the 90% of Obama’s foreign policy that has nothing to do with Iraq. He could, in fact, make pledges not to preventively invade any foreign countries. Wouldn’t that be a game-changer, eh?
