| Description | LANCASTER, N.H. - Republican Sen. John McCain, a possible 2008 presidential candidate, said Friday the United States should send another 20,000 troops to Iraq.
A member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, McCain said increasing U.S. forces would require expanding the standing Army and Marine Corps - a step the Bush administration has resisted. He also reiterated his opposition to a hasty U.S. withdrawal.
"If we leave ... the fighting will evolve into chaos there," McCain told reporters after speaking at an event for local Republican candidates. |
