PHOENIX (AP) -- Republican Sen. John McCain said Monday he's the best prepared to deal with a dead of night national emergency, not his Democratic rivals. Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama have argued in recent days over who would exercise superior judgment in the case of such a crisis.
''It's 3 a.m. and your children are safe and asleep. But there's a phone in the White House, and it's ringing,'' Clinton's ad begins.
McCain, a four-term senator from Arizona, said he is the most experienced and qualified to respond in that situation.
