John McCain in December: "The issue of economics is not something I’ve understood as well as I should."
John McCain in July:
Q: You have admitted that you’re not exactly an expert when it comes to the economy and many have said –
McCAIN: I have not. I have not. Actually, I have not. I said that I am stronger on national security issues because of all the time I spent in the military. I’m very strong on the economy. I understand it. I have a lot more experience than my opponent.
If it weren't so easy, it might actually be a bit more satisfying.
