Over the weekend Sen. John McCain hit the campaign trail harder than he had in his 2000 campaign. He spent the weekend in predominantly in Iowa and South Carolina.
For most of the weekend he spent combating question on the Iraq Policy which he has promoted for years and now is held hostage by. McCain has spent the past several years urging congress and the President to increase the number of troops in Iraq, saying that it is our only option for victory and an end to the war.
Now that the President has put that plan into action for McCains sake it must work. Otherwise his aspirations for 2008 have been shot down.
The other major topic impacting the Republican race is abortion. Other contenders, like the pro-choice Giuliani and born-again pro-life Romney, do not sit well with the majority of Republican voters who are opposed to abortion and think that legislation needs to be passed prohibiting it.
McCain on the other hand came out this weekend in front of a large crowd in South Carolina saying that he wants to see Roe v. Wade overturned.
I feel that McCain is the Republicans best chance at victory in 2008. The other two front runners, Romney and Giuliani do not have the same political backing that McCain has. He has been on the national stage for many years and his experience far outweighs them.
