You raise a very important question. So far Obama has proved himself to have tremendous confidence and political judgment. This is not at all consistent with his apparent recent timidity. The only logical explanation is that Obama is saving up his political capital for something big. I have no idea what that might be, but right now it is too soon to tell what to expect from President Obama. -raghu. -- Q: What's the contour integral around Western Europe?
