It's a transcript of a McCain speech. No commentary, no spin. I'd have preferred to see it side-by-side with an Obama speech, but it's accurate and informative for what it is.

His approach to the Iranian threat seems both multi-lateral (UN involvement) and tough. He realizes that simple slogans may win the hearts of simple-minded voters, complex and difficult problems require sacrifice, patience and hard work.
