James, should Clinton fight a war based on the poll results?

The first of Colin Powell's three basic rules for when to use military force is "strong public support." Powell is no dummy. He's been there, done that as much as (if not more than) any other American alive.

BTW, his other two rules are a high probability of success and a clear exit strategy.

And when these three principles are met and the decision is made to use force, it should be aplied with overwhelming strength and no halfway measures.

So far, this campaign is batting 0 for 4.

But what do you expect from a draft dodger in the White House?
