Every thing to happen over the next 18 months. Then what?


Anybody remember that Clinton absolutely promised we'd be out of Kosovo in 18 months? We're still there.

Otoh, this was the most pro-American speech I ever heard Obama give, one in which he said "we" for America, even for some things Bush had done.

Otoh, launching a campaign while announcing exit dates and wearing green eyeshades over the cost is like launching a boat with one foot in the boat and one foot still on the pier. Straddles at such times lead to predictably bad results.
