 <description>&lt;p&gt;I heard he had crashed Airplanes while in service. He&#039;s no hero. Just an incompetent soldier that skive and got caught.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Using Karl Rove&#039;s tactics on John McCain</title>
 <link>http://kirkcaraway.com/03/05/2008/using_karl_roves_tactics_on_john_mccain</link>
 <description>My column tomorrow is about Sen. John McCain&#039;s 100 years in Iraq statements and his attempts to clarify them, which I wrote before &lt;a href=&quot;http://kirkcaraway.com/02/05/2008/mccain_iraq_war_about_oil&quot;&gt;his comments about how the Iraq War is about oil&lt;/a&gt;, and his attempts to backtrack.

People see McCain&#039;s straight talk as his main strength. But if you use Karl Rove&#039;s campaign playbook, you attack you opponent&#039;s strength. And in McCain&#039;s case, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/5/3/3114/79178&quot;&gt;the strength of his straight talk has a lot of holes in it. &lt;/a&gt; 

When the Democratic nominee is finally decided, McCain is in for a whoopin. The news media has been lax about pointing out McCain&#039;s flip flops, but that can be corrected by the avalanche of attack ads that will be coming his way. Those ads will cause McCain to cry foul, and the media will be forced to examine those flip flops. Unlike the Kerry Swift Boat ads, these attacks have some actual truth to them. They have video of his misstatements and flip flops. 

And as McCain keeps talking, he just keeps putting his foot in his mouth. The problem is that he wants to be truthful, but he knows that politically he can&#039;t. He knows the war in Iraq is about oil and that the Bush tax cuts were unfair. But he wants to be president, so he tries in vain to bite his tongue. </description>
