Senator Clinton would run a competitive race for the presidency in 2008, but I do not believe she would win. Republican attacks on her would make the swift boating of John Kerry look like child's play. The country does not need another bitterly divisive presidential campaign. We need a Democratic President to repair the damage done to the U.S. domestically and internationally by this Administration. I hope Hillary can shelve her presidential ambitions for now.

...Casta?o was a swift, violent man, built like a scrappy welterweight fighter, and you'd be a fool to take him straight on. I met him once, in 2000, and it was the strangest assignment I've ever done. Not dangerous, as I had expected, but strange...

As a presidential candidate, Hillary could count on every attack from the right that Bill gotmaybe worse, because he never had to contend with the blogosphere or the newer kind of independent operation that turned swift boat into a verb in the 2004 presidential election...
...Still, the ceasefire holds, helped partly by the swift political measures to dispatch Lebanese troops to the south and arrange for the arrival of the first of some additional 13,000 reinforcements for the U.N. peacekeeping force in south Lebanon. As theU.N. and Lebanese troops move into the south, the Israelis are expected to begin withdrawing, possibly as soon as by the end of the week, a move that will further mitigate tensions here. But perhaps the most important contribution to maintaining stability is the returning hordes of refugees whose presence here speaks more of rebuilding and looking...
