2008 Presidential Election
Matthew Gross: "if McCain isn't running in 2008, then what's all this squawking about?"
Meawhile Andrew Sullivan writes, "He's right, of course. The sheer cumulation of incompetence, arrogance and denial make our current defense secretary a serious and continuing liability in the war on terror. The trouble is that Rumsfeld's critical errors - misrreading pre-war intelligence, needlessly alienating allies, under-manning the occupation, the loosening of ethical restraints that led to Abu Ghraib, leaving troops in the theater without adequate armor, and on and on - are inextricable from the president's own policy decisions. So Rummy stays."
Update: Electoral-vote.com: "One of the Democratic electors in Minnesota cast his or her electoral vote for John Edwards according to an AP story. The name of the faithless elector is not known."
