LETTER TO THE EDITOR:

McCain’s smears reek of desperation

John McCain was recently quoted as stating that Barack Obama “would rather lose a war in order to win a political campaign.”

Obama responded, “I was disappointed. John McCain and I disagree on policy. We disagreed on going to war in Iraq. We disagreed until recently on Afghanistan. But I’ve never questioned that he wants to make America safer. And for him to suggest that I don’t, for him to suggest that I’m less concerned about the safety of my wife and daughters than he is, was unfortunate.”

Who sounds more desperate? Who sounds like he is willing to stretch the truth in order to win an election? Who, on the other hand, sounds rational and reasonable and deserving of our vote?
