[QUOTE="Bill V, post: 812206, member: 54538"] Rich, if the photo was indeed a mixup, then yes, like it or not, it does point to someone in the campaign not doing proper dilligence (sp?), which can fairly be seen as an indication of the competence level of whomever is responsible for the error occurring. Even if it's not a mixup, it still calls into question the competence of someone in the campaign, as there was no logical reason to have that image there (or, the reason is too convoluted for anyone discussing it to come up with so far), and it was therefore confusing to voters, which is something any campaign does not want to do. Further, it resulted with McCain appearing to be in front of a green screen in closeup images, which eveyrone on the McCain campaign staff should have known to avoid simply from watching the Colbert Report. Either way, the image was a mistake. However, no one has said or implied, nor could ever sanely say or imply, that such a mixup has anything to do with anyone's service record. But your comment clearly implied that someone had done just that. [/QUOTE]
