Hillary Clinton, March 3, 2008
"I think that since we now know Sen. McCain will be the nominee for the Republican Party, national security will be front and center in this election. We all know that. And I think it’s imperative that each of us be able to demonstrate we can cross the commander-in-chief threshold. I believe that I’ve done that. Certainly, Sen. McCain has done that and you’ll have to ask Sen. Obama with respect to his candidacy." - Hillary Clinton, March 6, 2008
John McCain, on keeping American troops in Iraq for 50 years, as George Bush has suggested: "Make it a hundred. We've been in Japan for 60 years. We've been in South Korea 50 years or so. That would be fine with me." - John McCain, January 3, 2008
"If the most important thing to any of you is choosing someone who did not cast that vote [authorizing the use of U.S. armed forces against Iraq, Oct. 11, 2002] or has said his vote was a mistake, then there are others to choose from." - Hillary Clinton, February 17, 2007
"I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of al-Qaeda." - Barack Obama, October 2, 2002
