Campaign Standard friend Jose sends along another example of politics by paraleipsis, the art of saying something by saying that you're not saying it.
It comes from John McCain in this article about McCain and Barack Obama. McCain said a debate between the two would be a debate "between victory and surrender."
He went on:
"Without in any way denigrating or in any way being critical of Senator Obama, who I have great respect for, it's a product of his inexperience," McCain told reporters on his campaign plane. "And we'll be highlighting that. And, inexperience, a lack of knowledge of national security issues can only lead one to the conclusion, that you would have immediate withdrawal from Iraq."
Hmmmm...
