Israel and Iran

The New York Times reports that Israel is not happy about the new US NIE on Iran. I have a feeling that Israel is worried about a Democratic Win in November, might take action early, less flak from a Bush Administration than a new Democratic Administration. That clock just might be going again....

Libby Case Closed

Fox News: Reports that Scooter Libby will drop his appeal plan. President George W. Bush should pardon this loyal aide, the case should never have reached trial.

The Hillary Problem ?

Bloomberg.com: Interesting article that looks at the problems the Clinton machines is going through. At its centre is her record, on one level a plus, First Lady then Senator, the problem is that voters don't trust her, and that is being polite, Hillary does not have the charm of Bill, but as stated in this blog for a long time, Hillary is not Bill, if Democrats cant see that they will lose next year.
