McCain: Obama Needs To Condemn 'Sham, Corrupt Election' In Iran

President Barack Obama needs to speak out more forcefully about the "sham, corrupt election" in Iran, his 2008 Republican presidential opponent said this morning.

Here is Arizona Sen. John McCain's discussion with NBC's David Gregory, on The Today Show:

The GOP's top foreign policy spokesman in the Senate, though, said today on CBS-TV's The Early Show that it wouldn't be wise for the U.S. to get more involved at this point. "Our position is to allow the Iranians to work out their situation," said Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana, the ranking minority member on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
