And truthfully coming up empty handed, I will say for any doubters, whether they be foreign or domestic, the contrast with Obama is going to be stark, manifest, and painful. Not that I would have wanted it to go this way, but some in this country are going to get a big dose of their own medicine and it ain't going to be pretty. Another way of saying be careful what you wish for.
