Obama Hits McCain Over Zapatero Gaffe, Compares Him To Cheney

By Greg Sargent - September 22, 2008, 10:40AM

In an interview with the same Miami radio station that elicited the now-notorious McCain Zapatero flub, Obama hits McCain for refusing to say whether he'd meet with the Spanish prime minister.

Interview to the Democrats' presidential candidate, Barack Obama (English Version)

The key moment comes around two-thirds of the way in. Asked if he'd meet with Zapatero, Obama said:

"Of course. Spain is a NATO ally, and the fact that Senator McCain indicated that he might not meet with Zapatero I think indicates that he wants to continue the Cheney policies of trying to dictate American foreign policy instead of trying to build cooperation. I think that's a mistake."
