McCain says has "No confidence" in Runsfeld

[phk]

President Bush’s seeming reluctance to fire Rumsfeld indicates how badly the war is going. If the president fired Rumsfeld, an American public that slumbered through the election might finally realize the true dismal state of the war. Instead, like a deer caught in the headlights, Bush naively and unwisely believes that by retaining the charismatic face of his Iraq policy, he can hide his and Rumsfeld’s failure long enough to figure out what to do. Instead, he should fire Rumsfeld and hire someone who can begin to extricate the United States from this muddy quagmire.

He is ready to trash-talk Rumsfeld's stupidity, and not to sell his soul out to George W. Bush; and besides Chuck Hagel does the same and is probably even more conservative than McCain.
