Even after McCain retracts Iraq war statement, Blitzer calls it "straight talk"

SUMMARY: On CNN's The Situation Room, host Wolf Blitzer and correspondent Dana Bash both characterized as "straight talk" Sen. John McCain's assertion that he will "lose" the presidential election if, as Bash reported, "he doesn't convince voters that the U.S. policy in Iraq is succeeding" -- even though they acknowledged McCain immediately retracted the statement.
