ROCKY RIVER, Ohio (AP) - John McCain has offered a blunt
prediction about the presidential race. The Republican
nominee-apparent said today that to win the White House, he must
convince the country that U.S. policy in Iraq is succeeding. If
not, said McCain, then -- in his words -- "I lose."
He quickly backed off that remark. Instead, McCain said Iraq
will play a role in voters' judgment of his ability to handle
national security.
The Iraq conflict already is emerging as a fault line in the
general election, with the Arizona senator calling for the U.S.
military to continue its mission while his Democratic opponents
urge quick withdrawal.
