Weekend Briefs
For those of you that want to comment on the big events of the weekend.
- Evan Bayh decides not to make the leap. Swamped by the Obama Machine, Bayh thought the odds were just "too long." He added that beyond the question of "whether there were too many Goliaths or whether I'm just not the right David."
- John Edwards will be making an announcement about his Presidential bid the week between Christmas and New Years, beginning in New Orleans Lower 9th Ward.
- New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson took a swipe at John McCain while in New Hampshire this weekend. It appears that the Bush Administration will be announcing that they are going to take the "McCain plan" and put up to 30,000 more troops in Iraq. Richardson called McCain "dead wrong."
- Tommy Thompson formed an exploratory committee while in the Hawkeye State on Friday. This comes on the heels of Thompson bringing Iowa strategist Steve Grubbs on board his Presidential campaign.
- Duncan Hunter was also campaigning in Iowa this weekend.

McCain is the only candidate who has had the courage to stand up and give a solution to the Iraq war that could end with success. While other politicians are shrinking from their responsibility on this critical issue, McCain has staked out a principled position- even if it isn't a popular one.
Kudos to sen. Mccain

anon 108 here again:
Who said "everyone else is wrong and McCain is right?"
Not me. My point was that McCain seems to be the only candidate with the courage to put his head on the chopping block and make a clear statement on what we should do with Iraq.
Let's face it, Iraq is THE issue at this point And if all our candidates can offer is "stay the course" or some other muddled strategy, the same thing is going to happen in 08 that happened in 06.
We need a candidate who will lead on this issue and McCain seems to be the only one willing to do that.
