TRANSCRIPT:
MCCAIN: "[...] And now he wants to reverse the gains that we have made and set a date for withdrawal, which would endanger our progress in Iraq. And my friends, if we had failed in Iraq you would have seen increased Iranian influence, you would have seen an increase in sectarian violence, we would have seen al-Qaeda establishing another foothold. And by the way, al-Qaeda's on the run but they're not defeated. And this success is fragile, and we cannot reverse it. We cannot reverse it by doing what Senator Obama has said that he wants to do. He refuses to acknowledge the conditions on the ground."
