A ploy by the Republicans and McCain?

U.S. general wants help in Afghanistan now
Troops needed 'as quickly as possible,' top commander in Afghanistan says

WASHINGTON - The top American military commander in Afghanistan said Wednesday that he needs more troops and other aid "as quickly as possible" in a counterinsurgency battle that could get worse before it gets better.

Gen. David McKiernan said it's not just a question of troops ? but more economic aid and more political aid as well.

Speaking to Pentagon reporters, the head of NATO forces in Afghanistan said there has been a significant increase in foreign fighters coming in from neighboring Pakistan this year ? including Chechens, Uzbeks, Saudis and Europeans.

Rest story

The Republicans can try this ploy, but all I see is that Senator Barack Obama was right all along and if this is the case, he'll be the first President whose vision extend way beyond those currently in charge.

Exactly. He's been saying this a long time ago. He even said it at the debate.

Didn't read the whole article but not quite sure how this would be a ploy. This is what Obama has BEEN calling for from the get go. If anything it shows he has been on the right track the whole time. The Repubs would need to try and cover this up if anything.
