McCain's campaign implosion tied to Iraq

Senator McCain's campaign implosion over the past week has been diagnosed to be caused by his campaign strategist's errors in trying to make McCain be like Bush. That is a wrong analysis of why McCain's campaign imploded. It did so because of McCain's unyielding position on Iraq and fighting this war to "win". Unfortunately, McCain is really fighting the Vietnam War again this time in Iraq and hoping this time for the victory denied then.

The symptoms of this mental disorder can be traced to his "psychological attachment" to a victorious outcome, which we all know, and have been told repeatedly, that there is no military victory possible in Iraq. In one way, this does mirror Bush, as he too is attached psychologically to his strategy in Iraq. He has no intention to end the war and bring the troops home, as he sees his legacy will be recorded as he was willing to fight the war, while a successor Democrat or Republican President will be blamed for losing his war.

This indeed is a mental illness and the country will be paying the price of this disease for generations to come. Senator McCain, we lost the war in Vietnam but won the long term peace finally after leaving there, and we can do the same in Iraq. Give it up or get some help by a professional, and take this President with you as maybe you can get a discount for therapy for 2 people with the same disease.
