David, > McClellan has a huge credibility problem and I suspect when people start reading the book it is going to get worse, not better.

That would best describe someone like George Tenet, not Scott McClellan.

Scott McClellan is just a guy caught between the inner workings of the White House and the outer image presented to the media, because that's his job. I don't see what "credibility problems" he has.

From what I've read through articles, etc., it seems the book is just going to confirm what many have felt all along, that "stay the course" has turned into a culture of denial within the White House. Even if you still believe in victory in Iraq, you have to admit that Bush could have done the troop surge much earlier like McCain wanted.

Hindsight is 20/20 now. I think McCain can emerge from this a stronger candidate if he tried.

No, he doesn't......you do. After all, McClellan is confirming what most Americans believe. You, on the other hand, want to the turn clock back to 2001, and make Bush a hero.
