Three cheers for John McCain, who in an interview yesterday with MSNBC's Chris Matthews put the matter plainly:

If anyone came to my hometown in Phoenix, Ariz., and set off a bomb on a bus and killed 18 people and injured 100 of them, my citizens would expect us to respond. . . . Do you want to call that a cycle of violence? You can call it what you want, but these acts of terror, these organizations, funded by the Saudis, at least encouraged by Yasser Arafat, are inexcusable in their tactics--and their results are horrendous."

But it is unlike Bush to wantonly throw away political capital like this.

Which is why it would be surprising if this isn't another Bush "surprise." It's starting to look like it isn't. Maybe State had their way on this one.
