We Need A President Who Knows What He's Talking About

John "Bomb Bomb Bomb" McCain:

And guess what? Spending got out of control. Republicans lost the 2006 election not over the war in Iraq, (but) over spending. Our base became disenchanted.
That’s not the way I remember it. I seem to remember many voters expressing dissatisfaction about the “war” (actually an occupation) in Iraq. And guess what? I’m right and McCain is wrong:
Incidentally, public opinion surveys do not back up McCain's claim that Republicans lost control of Congress in 2006 over the issue of spending.

Associated Press-Ipsos polling that tracks what people consider the most important issues facing the country picked up hardly anyone citing government spending or the federal deficit as an important problem in 2006. Rather, polling said the economy, Iraq, terrorism and scandals and corruption in government rated highly in 2006.
