John McCain 2008 Presidential Campaign (view source)
Revision as of 13:13, August 15, 2008
, 13:13, August 15, 2008→Endorsements: Per talk page
After Russia's invasion of neighboring Georgia, Senator McCain made tough statements regarding Russia's seemingly imperialistic maneuvers. McCain drew the most criticism for announcing that he'd send [[Senator Lindsey Graham]] and [[Senator Joe Lieberman]] on a trip to Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia. The announcement brought suggestions of hypocrisy after McCain's criticism of [[Barack Obama|Senator Obama's]] overseas trip that drew a crowd of 200,000 in Berlin for appearing too presidential. In addition, the trip by McCain's surrogates is exceptional due to past presidential candidates traditionally sidestepping any international conflicts in deference to the sitting president. <ref>[http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/08/14/AR2008081403332.html McCain's Focus on Georgia Raises Question of Propriety]</ref>
