McCain - Iraq strategy
Overall, Sen McCain will make a better president than Sen Obama. However, Sen. McCain must change his Iraq policy quickly. Most Americans want our troops out of Iraq sooner not later. So, his 2013 date for withdrawing most of the troops is off target. Someone needs to tell Sen McCain that America wants to move more quickly to get the troops back home.
I respect Sen McCain's dedicated service to America over the years. However, he needs to be aware of American opinion on the Iraq War. If he loses the Presidential election, his Iraq War stance will be the reason.
Breaking News: McCain sees Iraq combat over, U.S. troops home before 2013
In a speech he's about to give shortly at the Greater Columbus Convention Center in Ohio, Sen. John McCain, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, will for the first time talk about a specific date for when he envisions direct American military involvement to be over in Iraq.
It's January, 2013. By then, he says, American combat involvement will be over and most U.S. troops back home.

He knows what he talking about IMO. We've been in N. Korea, Germany, South Pacific for years..we will be in the Middle East for year as as well.
Iraq wants to sign a pact with the US ( last time I heard).
