Recent events show McCain is correct about having to step up the pace and finish job ASAP, particularly given developments such as the Taliban's murder of al Haq, their reported murder of five more opposition leaders (today on CNN), and the Taliban's reinforcement by extremist Pakistanis who are crossing the border with troops, food, and supplies (also today on CNN).

The strategy of putting together a new government before getting rid of the Taliban hasn't worked, but only because it's going too slowly -- the Taliban is picking off opposition leadership from within, and getting outside help and so long as it remains in power. I have a feeling that once the Taliban falls, the opposition leaders, or what's left of them, will work out their differences.
