Obama And Gates
Readers know I've been a big fan of the idea of Obama keeping Bob Gates at the Pentagon. Joe Klein's column fans the flames a little. It has this quote from Obama:
"I really admire the way the elder Bush
negotiated the end of the cold war—with discipline, tough diplomacy and
restraint ... and I'd be very interested in having those sorts of
Republicans in my Administration, especially people who can expedite a
responsible and orderly conclusion to the Iraq war—and who know how to
keep the hammer down on al-Qaeda."
Noam is psyched. Matt less so.
