    Do you think his steadfast support for the Iraq war help him voters? Will it hurt him? Will the war largely disappear as "the economy" becomes the primary focus?

    The Republican Party is irrelevant in this election. McCain is out of the running by virtue of the fact that he is a Republican. BTW, given his area of expertise, the fact that he is a "supporter of the war" makes me wonder if there's not more to the war than we are told. In other words, maybe there is a good reason for it, despite the toll. Don't know what it is. There is no hope for the middle east, and it seems as though a brutal dictator was the best government for Iraq, horrible as that sounds.
