Democratic vice presidential nominee Joe Biden is expected to say Wednesday that GOP presidential candidate and "friend" John McCain does not have the judgment to be commander in chief.
In a speech billed as a “major address,” the Delaware senator will try to set the stage ahead of Friday's debate between McCain and Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) on foreign policy.
According to prepared remarks, Biden will list a litany of complaints against McCain’s foreign policy judgment in the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 — from McCain's prediction that U.S. troops would be “greeted as liberators” in Iraq to the dispute over which country is the central front in the war on terrorism.
“John is more than wrong — he is dangerously wrong,” Biden is planning to say in Cincinnati. “On a question so basic, so fundamental, so critical to our nation’s security, we can’t afford a commander in chief so divorced from reality and from America’s most basic national interests.”
