Apparently he's now beginning to backtrack on that statement.

Is this how low presidential politics in America have come? So low, so fast. It seems like every other day we're burdened with bullshit issues like this. But this bullshit issue is kinda sick.
In fairness, he was asked the question by a journalist whether a terrorist attack on U.S. would advantage McCain's campaign, and he just answered it honestly. Incredibly inappropriate nonetheless.
