GOP Debate: Romney And McCain Attack Each Other's Conservative Credentials

Marc Cooper - The Huffington Post

Simi Valley, California - During the final Republican presidential debate before next Tuesday's virtual national primary election, frontrunners John McCain and Mitt Romney verbally pummeled each other, repeatedly questioning the rival candidate's conservative credentials and arguing bitterly over the war in Iraq.

Romney said he found it "offensive" that his support for the war in Iraq has been questioned by the McCain campaign. McCain's criticism of Romney's position on the war; alleging that the former Massachusetts Governor supported a timetable for U.S. troop withdrawal "sort of falls into the dirty tricks that Ronald Reagan would have found reprehensible," Romney said. McCain's tactics, he said, were "Washington- style old politics; lay a charge out there, put it out there... there isn't a single media source that said that it wasn't reprehensible. It's simply wrong and the Senator knows it." Romney insisted that he would steadfastly support current policy. "Let me make it absolutely clear tonight: I will not pull our troops out until we have success in Iraq," Romney said.

McCain heatedly fired back, saying that Romney "could spend it all" on negative ads but nothing would change the fact that Romney had not vigorously enough supported the war and this past year's surge of troops. McCain lauded himself for supporting the troop surge when it was highly unpopular and when Romney said, as a governor, he would not "weigh in" on some national issues like the war.

After a series of failures, deaths and betrayals, two of the alpha males now approach the climactic final showdown

for leadership of their little band of smelly survivors.

The Hunter, who had been crippled and left for dead,

is now armed, ambulatory and wants to keep them all there forever.

Of course the optimal solution is, whoever wins, the cloaking field goes back up and seals the whole lot of them off from the rest of the human race for a thousand years.
