I've been listening to John Edwards a bit recently. He's matured quite a
bit.

If he positions himself correctly, he might just swim up the middle past
Hillary and Obama - both of whom suffer from some percieved "electability
issues". It will be interesting to watch.

GOP side still looks "open" with McCain and Rudy perhaps out front.




McCain may get hurt if Bush goes for more troops in Iraq as expected. If it
doesn't change anything ... and I personally don't think it will ... McCain
will lose credibility having been advocating a further buildup.

A good USMC friend of the family visited us for 2 days after Christmas.
He returned from a tour in Iraq just last month.

His opinion on what is going on over there - Disorganization amongst
and poor leadership of the troops, no lasting results, Iraqis love you
one day and hate you the next.........time to get out as we will never
change things.

I have been on the fence regarding this war lately and he pushed me
over..........I also now agree it is time to leave and let them sort it
out themselves.
