Is it Me?

For Obama's foreign policy views, you stressed the point about how great the persons Obama surrounds himself with. But you are linking me to old articles about Mark Lippert, a 34 year old Naval reservist - can you say anything about that man's role in foreign policy? Probably not. And anyhow, he's in Iraq or just recently back and apparently Daschle's advisor filled the void. Clearly you are sketchy on how Obama would walk us through the minefield of international politics. Given the current state of this world, I just can't vote based on fuzzy ambiguous "feelings."
I think his choice of advisors suggests he's approaching foreign policy in a good way. Of course we're sketchy on how Obama would walk us through the minefield of international politics. It's hard to tell with any candidate. Gov. Bush scoffed a nation-building, and now we're several years into trying to bring democracy to Iraq. Do you think it's any clearer what Romney or Huckabee would do? I will admit that I have a pretty good sense of Giuliani, not least because of the lunatics he has surrounded himself with as advisors
