McCain Strategist Says Terror Attacks Would be an "Advantage"

By Sean Sirrine

ADVERTISEMENTS
I'm not sure why everyone is getting so worked up about this statement. Of course it is incredibly stupid, but read in context it isn't all that controversial. Charlie Black is essentially saying that McCain has more knowledge about security issues and any event that allows McCain to show off that knowledge gives hm an advantage.

This is probably true. However, as many of us know, just being able to regurgitate a bunch of facts does not show leadership.

If it is true, doesn't it seem like it would be painful to be the candidate that is relying on conflict to get you elected.

I don't really care about the politics of the issue, it just seems like if true, McCain should be hoping to lose because he should be hoping that bad things don't happen to Americans.

That seems like a sad position to be in.


For example, Black told Fortune that the assassination of former Pakistani prime minister Benazir Bhutto last December was an ?unfortunate event,? but it enabled McCain to secure a crucial victory in the New Hampshire primary, because ?his knowledge and ability to talk about it reemphasized that this is the guy who?s ready to be Commander-in-Chief. And it helped us.?

Black went on to agree with the interviewer that another terrorist attack on US soil would also work in McCain?s favor. ?Certainly it would be a big advantage to him,? Black stated.
