: I absolutely object.  I think two of the quotes are very appropriate for the article.  The first is relevant in that Obama was being criticized here for the use of the word "bomb" as opposed to "bomb'''s'''", and saying "57 states" instead of "47 states".  Also, McCain's criticism of Obama and foreign policy, when McCain has repeatedly confused Sunni and Shia, and who makes up the majority of the Iranian population and Al Qaeda.  If you want to delete the second one, I won't be terribly opposed to it.  And the third is important in that much of McCain's campaign centers around his military service.  When Wes Clark made his remarks recently about military service as a qualification for president, there was an uproar.  I think it is, therefore, very relevant when McCain talks about military service---especially when he's said something that flies in the face of what he now claims.  --[[User:Jareddr|Jareddr]] 18:01, 22 July 2008 (EDT)

::Re the Obama Criticism.  Remember that that was in the main page, which is basically just a trivia/blog section, whereas this article is part of the encyclopedia proper, and thus must be accurate and trustworthy like all the other pages are.  Therefore I don't think its fair to compare the Obama gaffe with that here.  I suggest that the first should be left in as being relevant to his ability to perform the presidency, but the second and third should be removed as trivia.
