This is an odd story. He was asked by a Spanish reporter if he would meet with Zapatero if elected (I don't know why they would even ask that question, because I would have assumed (falsely) that the answer is an automatic "yes"). McCain refused to say yes. He was asked at least 4 times, and each time he dodged the question (each time also referring to Latin America in his response). The exasperated reporter finally said he meant the president of Spain (even saying that Spain is in Europe). McCain again refused to answer. Does he really not want to meet with Zapatero? Did he not know who Zapatero is? What happened? Spanish papers appear befuddled as well. |

They are still trying to figure out Obama's lying Spanish ad.

What's really bizarre is when you realize this is the guy running pretty much on foreign policy credentials alone.

what's also bizarre is the guy running against him is running on being a good speaker and doing some community organizing

If McCain wants to win us over with his incomparable experience with foreign policy, he should at least make it seem like he knows which leaders belong to Cuba and which ones belong to Spain. That's my point. |

From reading it is unclear to me which interpretation is correct. If he had been prepared for Latin American discussions I can see him not knowing, not that that is excusable. Or given his Iraq stance, it seems more probable to me that he simply doesn't feel any affinity for Zapatero given his abandonment of Iraq and the Allies.

Why do you find it unacceptable to be chilly to Spain if we don't need anything from Spain right now?
