people talk.) -- Karl, paraphrasing Dante.
Maybe I am missing something, but Edwards seems to be proposing exactly the
same thing that he and Kerry proposed when they ran in 2004. This is the
"multilateralist" approach to defeating the insurgency rather than the
cowboy unilateralism of the Bush administration. The only difference is
that Edwards is seeking to put some distance between himself and the Joe
Bidens and Hillary Clintons in the party by saying that he regrets his vote
for war. Rank opportunism in other words.
