Click to view video.60 Minutes traveled with Senator John McCain (R-AZ) on his recent trip to Baghdad. Watch McCain backpeddle on a number of issues, especially the claims he has made about the success of the surge in Iraq. Consider this his Dukakis moment.
Seeing as how he is trailing in the polls and fundraising efforts, I have a feeling he will drop out of the presidential race fairly soon. I almost feel bad for him. On a personal level, he has always come across as a rather affable guy. But politically, he's as conservative as they get. And, frankly, his nearly unconditional support of the Bush administration policies is, well, unforgivable.
