Oh dear Lord, is this ever interesting. I wonder what Sen. McCain will have to say about this.

1. Tay, that

headline must be posted in GD. Please, thanks!

2. McCain will speak about how he made this visit and summit

possible because of his work in the 90s. The media will likely parrot this just as they did in early 2005 when the Vietnamese were here. (Hell, Bill Clinton gave him more credit than any other Senator.)

You would swear that no one remembers who took the risk chairing that no-win committee.
