Your analysis wrong, Daniel?
Reader comment on item: Romney Stumbles on Foreign Policy
Submitted by Melvin A. Fechter (United States), Oct 23, 2012 at 12:03
Your analysis, Daniel, seems much at odds with that of Donald Rumsfeld's, only fragments of which, regretfully, I heard this morning. Fortunately, I have it all recorded and will be able to listen to it in more detail later. Briefly, however, Rumsfeld, for whom I have a high regard, seemed to feel Romney was right on all significant military issues and that Obama acted like an arrogant and dismissive jackass.

Daniel Pipes replies:
The entire Republican establishment says it's a famous victory for Obama. Maybe it is, but see my update on Oct. 23 on this.
