This is puzzling. While we all knew he’d botch it, it’s only been a few days.
Actually he botched it when he said Gadaffy must go; then by dithering while Gadaffy was on the ropes; and then this belated, ineffectual, chaotic “coalition.”
It’s like he started at home plate, ran to third, sleepwalked to second, got kicked hard over to first base and having landed there, he’s now staggering toward home.
Even for a rookie, it’s an unbelievably bad performance.
