I'm curious, if our current state of war is the reason we "must" elect McCain, what does it say about him that he plans for us to be in Iraq for the next hundred years?

Why not elect the person that, while not overly knowledgable about war, wants to stop that war.
Bush doesn't know jack about war, but people have been following him for 8 long years. Why follow someone that is just going to be continuing those flawed policies.

As for McCains war record, while nice, war experiences have never been a requirment for presidency, and no matter how brave, it doesn't mean jack when it comes to his ability lead a country.
