I don’t know if they’re really all that different. Both want Gitmo closed. Both call interrogation ‘torture’. They may have disagreed on some minor details, but they’re basically on the same page.
“I dont know if theyre really all that different. Both want Gitmo closed. Both call interrogation torture. They may have disagreed on some minor details, but theyre basically on the same page.”
I wouldn’t call the surge a minor detail. The bottom line is Obama would have bugged out of Iraq months ago, while McCain pushed for the surge when public opinion was opposed overwhelmingly.
We’ll see what happens.
But I don’t believe for a minute that Obama will offer McCain Defense (and I don’t think McCain would take it if offered).
