A note of optimism: I'm proud of the administration for having the courage to interpret the elections and respond in this way. It wasn't the only step they could have taken. Credit where credit is due; it proves that our system of representation is not entirely broken.
In the coming months, there is going to be a vigorous debate over how best to proceed in Iraq, now that the taboo of 'stay the course' has been broken. I look forward to having it here with all of you.
