From Talking Points Memo:

McCain has now become the latest hawk to pre-emptively attack the forthcoming proposals of the Iraq Study Group, which is reported to favor withdrawing troops from Iraq. McCain told conservative radio host Michael Smerconish that he’s sticking by his position that more troops need to be sent to Iraq, and rejected any notion of “compromise” that may be floated by the Baker-Hamilton group, elaborating as follows: “Well in war, my dear friends, there is no such thing as compromise; you either win or you lose.“

I would love to hear a detailed explanation from McCain of what exactly would constitute winning in Iraq. They have a government, they have had elections. What other benchmarks are you going to set? When do we tell the Iraqis that they need to stand on their own?
