I have to concur.. But the game is not over yet..

Watch how Turkey reacts.. They have the most at stake in this dispute, IMO.

They don't want to risk their relationship with Russia, but Putin may be forcing them to do so in favor of Georgia. And Turkey is in a prime position to provide both military and economic resources to oppose further Russian encroachment in Georgia.

If the Russians think the Georgians are "difficult", they should fear a Turkish offer to place their own "peace-keepers" in Georgia. I know I wouldn't want to fight against the Turks.
