MCCAIN: On the issue of withdrawal, let me just point out, I think it is a false argument. The key to our continue presence here is not how long we stay, it is the U.S. casualties. We've been in South Korea for more than 50 years. Americans are perfectly happy with that. We've been in Bosnia, we've been in all over the world, but we don't have casualties. If we can bring American casualties down as the Iraqis take over military and law enforcement responsibilities, then I think the American people will be satisfied to see significant progress. I think that is the key to it, rather whether we withdraw or not.

Ya, I think he was speaking about keeping up public support for the mission until it is achieved. McCain is there for the duration until achieved, no matter what the body count. That's my take.
