A top adviser to Sen. John McCain, Charles Black, injected the fear of terrorism into the campaign, by stating that a terrorist attack in the United States would be a political benefit to the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.
John McCain's campaign has been determined to have a debate about terrorism which polls have shown to be the only issue where he has any meaningful edge over Barack Obama. It was deliberate.
Black, who has drawn criticism for his long lobbying career and his representation of controversial foreign governments. McCain has been criticized for surrounding himself with top advisers who were lobbyists. This guy is still a chief advisor to McCain which means that they meant to play the fear card.
