16. McCain has lied about almost every issue within the same month - yet the MSM gives him a pass.
He has taken every position known to man on every issue he has talked about.
More often than not, he contradicts himself within just a few days or weeks.

How can the mainstream media not report all of the false positions that McCain has taken on all of these issues.

I just don't understand how they can look the other way.
McCain has yet to explain what "victory" means to him concerning the Iraq War.

If the surge worked, then we won, so we can leave Iraq.
If the surge didn't work, then we need to get out of Iraq because "more of the same" won't ensure victory.

Obama is blowing it.
He only needs to make one tv ad, saying just that - either acknowledge the surge worked so well we won the war, or claim the surge was only a temporary solution to a long-term problem and that we need to get out of Iraq.

McCain is running radio and tv ads in Idaho.
That's not a good sign.
They hate McCain in Idaho.
