John McCain's top aide Charlie Black, who said that a terrorist attack on America would "certainly would be a big advantage" to John McCain's campaign, isn't the only one who has been playing the terror card during this campaign.
The AP just called out Senator McCain himself on doing the exact same thing that Charlie Black has been doing, and in fact what the entire McCain campaign and the entire Republican Party has been doing.
Charlie Black just destroyed the George Bush campaign doctrine:
Black also told Fortune magazine that last December's assassination of former Pakistani prime minister Benazir Bhutto "helped us" amid the final run-up to the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary.
The day Bhutto died in a bombing and shooting attack, McCain told reporters, "My theme has been throughout this campaign that I'm the one with the experience, the knowledge and the judgment. So perhaps it may serve to enhance those credentials to make people understand that I've been to Pakistan, I know (President Pervez) Musharraf, I can pick up the phone and call him. I knew Benazir Bhutto."
The Arizona senator took his point one step further, contrasting himself with rival Mike Huckabee, just weeks before the former Arkansas governor beat him in Iowa.
McCain said Huckabee doesn't have "the same experience and background on national security issues that I do," prompting Huckabee to accuse McCain of "playing political games" with the attack.

I guess Huckabee broke the great Reagan rule of criticizing another Republican, and not just on how much to destroy social security or such: on national security.
John McCain is nothing but more George Bush policies, George Bush terror-mongering, fear-mongering, George Bush warmongering.
John McCain has no scruples about scaring Americans into selling America to the highest bidder because that's what this election is about for Republicans: keeping oil companies, i.e. their top campaign contributors, pumping their ill-gotten oil out of the middle east and keeping multinational corporations in general in business raping and pillaging our planet.
