“a residual presence for clearly defined missions”.

A residual presence of about 100,000 troops.

Non-combat designation, of course.

Bet on it.

Joseph Cirincione, Obama’s Nuclear Advisor, is already breaking-ground with Tehran. In an e-mail interview with Tehran’s Mehr News this past Monday this is what he had to say,

The standard U.S. policy before President Bush has been to talk with our adversaries as well as our friends. Only in this administration has the principle been established that negotiations were a reward. The next president should consult closely with our allies and then engage Iran in a full and open dialogue without preconditions. The Europeans and most of our allies would welcome such a policy. This dialogue will be difficult and there is no guarantee of success. But without it, there is a guarantee of failure and conflict.

Don’t hold your breath. Bush is not mentioned once. Petraeus is mentioned once. The U.S. military is mentioned once, referred to as “U.S. and British support.” All of the credit goes to the Iraqis.

That clip makes it clear: Barry has Kurt Vonnegut writing his policy positions for him. I am waiting for him to start proposing Ice-9 as some sort of solution to the energy crisis.

I’ve got to question McCain’s timing on going to Colombia, Brazil, and Mexico right before the Fourth of July. He should be beating the patriotism drum in Ohio and Pennsylvania and Michigan before all those bitter clingers to God and guns now, and he can go to South America in August, when nobody is paying attention.

Obama: I am going to change Washington from the failed policies of the past, including what my advisor said yesterday. I will transcend the partisanship that has paralyzed Washington–what I said today is for Democrats, what I said yesterday is for Republicans. I have consistently said this throughout my campaign, but the inartfulness of reporters have distracted the voters from the issues. If you have a question, Sweetie, ask Wesley Clark.

Personally I’m starting think McCain is really not into being President.

I personally don’t think he, or his camp, are up to it. Maybe the office (still debatable), but certainly not the campaign. They are not quick enough on their feet, they are over-sensitive about details while being seemingly oblivious to strategy. And the candidate cannot embrace whole sections of the party he represents.

We should not be reading/seeing this stuff on the pages of the MSM, although it helps. We should be seeing split screen videos from the McCain campaign on a daily basis using Obama’s eloquent speech making against himself. If McCain’s folks are so clueless, and they appear to be so, the Repub National Committee should be running the adds themselves.

McCain and crew are letting this thing slip away. You can’t save up these gifts to be used in the last couple of months. You have to pound the message home every few days. Videos have to make it to YouTube to later be spread in emails etc. It has to be nonstop.

Personally I’m starting think McCain is really not into being President. I’m getting the feeling he is just grandstanding, akin to Schumer and a TV camera. There’s a certain timely disconnect here that should not be happening inside a professionally run Presidential campaign. Commercials about Obama flip flopping lose there punch when they show up weeks later. They have to be within days of the flop. Who’s running McCain’s video editing department? This is easy stuff.

He’s whiffing on softballs.

With the change on Iraq, Obama may keep troops there for 100 years.

This is really turning out great. I bet by the time Denver rolls around, O! will be running right down the middle. The Recreate68 crowd will be supremely revved up over this, as their agenda is being publicly disavowed. Should make for some excellent street theatre.
