GOP - Short Lived Civilty
Republican Candidates Trade Attacks in Florida
Sen. John McCain of Arizona accused former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney of having once supported a U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq, sparking an angry demand for an apology from Romney, who called the statement "dishonest."
Both Republicans abandoned all pretense of civility as they campaigned across central Florida in advance of the state's primary Tuesday. Recent polls show a dead heat between McCain and Romney, and the winner here would gain a huge boost as the nomination fight moves to 21 states a week later.
Stumping in Fort Myers on Saturday, McCain went on the attack first, linking Romney with Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.): "If we surrender and wave a white flag, like Senator Clinton wants to do, and withdraw, as Governor Romney wanted to do, then there will be chaos, genocide, and the cost of American blood and treasure would be dramatically higher."
All the folks in the MSM and especially the folks at faux news could talk about all week was how civil the GOP debate was and how the Clinton/Obama flare up was ripping the Democratic party apart. So will we hear the same line from Sean Hannity about the GOP now?
Oh just for the record; McCain is right Mitt flopped on this one too and I always wondered just how do you have a secret timetable for withdrawal? The bad guys will just wake up one morning and 150,000 US troops will have disappeared overnight?…….not that ST McCain is any better.
Question: Do you believe that there should be a timetable in withdrawing
the troops?"Romney: "Well, there's no question that the President and Prime Minister
al-Maliki have to have a series of timetables and milestones that they speak
about."
