WASHINGTON, Jan. 30 (UPI) -- U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said Sunday that elections planned for September were a key to maintaining stability in Egypt.

McCain, a conservative and ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said a plan to ensure fair elections in the fall needed to be laid out promptly and stuck to in order to ensure the Egyptian people their grievances were being addressed.

"There is also a good chance for a real functioning democracy and arguably the most important nation in the middle East," McCain said on CNN's "State of the Union."

Is Juan flying to Egypt to stand on the street corner and offer his lame opinions?

[bergmeid]

Utterly clueless.

McC criticized O for not laying out a specific plan for Egypt. He must realize that ‘present’ never takes a position on anything important.

All the msm is now referring to his comments as ‘pretty good’. Buzz words for useless!!!

Open elections? Once the Muslim Brotherhood gets in, that will be the end of ‘open elections’. How does the MSM butter up the old man to get him to say this stuff? Two years from now - with a ‘new Iran’ on our hands, the MSM will pull out ‘the Republican’ backing this...

Utopian elections in a place open elections have never happened before.. by a people that have never had any sort of freedom and mostly don't want any.. They never had it so they don't miss it.. like in Russia, India and China.. and the rest of the mideast except in Isreal..

McClame is an idiot.. unless he is not an idiot but is a progressive like Obama.. hoping for Mob Rule by mobsters like in any democracy.. and eventually socialism..

You know like in England, France and Germany.. and currently regrettably the U.S....
