I am forced to agree with you. However, I do believe Patraeus is a potential wildcard that the administration can’t control. Tomorrow may be interesting.
I am dumbfounded when I think of what the media frenzy would have looked like if something like this had happened under Bush. I know we often say that, but it would have been the story of the century and bigger than Watergate if Bush had pulled something like this.
