I don't think that would happen but at some point, one of them will have to back down. Neither one wants war. Bullies tend to scare easily. So I am betting on Putin to back down.

Doubtful...he's on his turf...but let's say for argument sake that he doesn't back down....and you have to plan for that regardless of the odds...what's the next card Obama plays?

Then Obama is stuck with economic sanctions. Putin is playing this game because its a tough game to play and he has a good chance of winning it. That was true from the outset...........but we need to make him sweat...........so that he will be less willing to play the same game the next time. The world has seen what happens when you don't stand up to bullies..........they think they can get away with murder.
