    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: Does John McCain question Obama's patriotism? Of course not! Why, McCain told us so himself! Though McCain has said frequently that Obama would rather lose a war than lose a presidential campaign and that Obama's Iraq policies are driven by "ambition." A newsworthy contradiction?

    Sunday Show Roundup: McCain's Campaign of Honor

    Your Daily Politics Video Blog: One of John McCain's repeated promises once he won the Republican nomination was that he would wage an honorable and dignified campaign against the Democratic nominee.
