Lane, re: "When you evaluate risk you don't just look at what they believe or what they want. You look at their ability to carry it out. McCain would not have the wherewithal to carry out those beliefs in any grand way. He wouldn't have the money or the troops or the backing of the people and the Congress. That's what I said upstream and I'm sticking with it." Good, then you can explain how it is that Bush/Cheney have been able to not only continue but to increase our presence in Iraq while the majority of Congress and the American people oppose the war, the military is using bailing wire to keep it going, and our treasure is getting more and more depleted? Cause I'd really like to know how McCain wouldn't be able to carry on, especially in light of the fact that the foreign policy theme that he runs on will be "no surrender." And with respect to the S. Court, many critically important cases have hung on a razor thin, one vote balance and just a little more conservatism on the court will be the straw that breaks the camel's back. For that reason I strongly suggest that it's a mistake to generalize and dismiss a move to the right by simply characterizing it as moving "not so much." Ed
