1. Giuliani: Afghanistan surge, N.H. retreat
Days after his campaign pooh-poohed the political world’s laser-like focus on Iowa and New Hampshire as outdated “folly” perpetuated by “Beltway insiders,” Rudy Giuliani spent Wednesday in New Hampshire pitching a military expansion that he says would double the number of troops in Afghanistan.

The Afghanistan surge would direct 10,000 troops from places other than Iraq to the southern part of the country.

It's part of a four-point plan Giuliani unveiled Wednesday for strengthening America’s military and diplomatic position, which also included 10 new, combat-ready Army brigades and 20,000 additional Marines.
