When the bridge is out ahead, McCain jams the accelerator to the floor

he always speaks the truth...
The Senator argued that his 'truth-telling' was more important than his political prospects.

iraq is more important to him than being president...
"For my part, I would rather lose a campaign than a war," he remarked.

he is going to defend u.s. presence in iraq no matter what...
At the same time, he defended America's military involvement.

he continues to see al qaeda lurking behind every tree...
"It is obviously true that no military solution is capable of doing what the Iraqis won’t do politically," he said in response to those calling for a withdrawal of US troops. "But, my friends, no political solution has a chance to succeed when al Qaeda is free to foment civil war and Iraqis remain dependent on sectarian militias to protect their children from being murdered."

and (of course) it's all the democrats' fault...
The Senator criticized top Democrats for their stance in particular.

"In Washington, where political calculation seems to trump all other considerations, Democrats in Congress and their leading candidates for President, heedless of the terrible consequences of our failure, unanimously confirmed our new commander, and then insisted he be prevented from taking the action he believes necessary to safeguard our country’s interests," he said.

ya gotta hand it to mccain... when he sees the the bridge out on the road ahead, he just jams the accelerator to the floor... maybe he thinks he can do an evel knievel...
