This is the New Republic editorial in action. Be for debate, diplomacy and coalitions on general principle, not because you have a different assessment of the situation, and have thought out a different approach. So when the Republicans lay forth arguments on why, for instance, containment has stopped working and will not work in the future, what is the Democratic answer? "But the allies won't like it?"

I'm not saying there isn't an argument there to be made, but the Democrats have not been making it. How could containment be reestablished? How could diplomatic options be exhausted without sucking us into the quicksand of endless farcical inspections? I don't hear much thought behind the arguments.
