McCain: The Troops "Will Come Home With Honor and Victory"

The Arizonan reiterates that the surge is working and because of that the troops in Iraq will start coming home as heroes during a midday Rochester, New Hampshire town hall. Adds if the U.S. had listened to Obama the Iraq war would have ended in defeat and it would have been a "catastrophe." Also says Obama's withdrawal plan would "reverse the gains we have made" in Iraq. Later says "I hope he will have the courage to reverse his position."
