It's about 3 am EST and I'm getting on a plane in 9 minutes here at Narita Airport in Japan. . .finally.
But I'm very pleased that the Philadelphia Inquirer ran my Cuba reactions as an oped today. But scan the papers, there is a lot of informed commentary out there -- and really very, very little that thinks that maintaining the status quo makes any sense.
Are the campaigns taking stock of this?

The campaigns are being cautious. But after November a thaw would be welcome to most of the world except for a few grumpy exiles.
Steve, congrats on getting you blog blurb on The Huffington Post.
Though any -- any -- mention or promotion of Krautheimer gets my dander up. I am on a crusade to ignore these traitors, to the extent that I have canceled my subscription to the WaPo.
What also gets me is that the Clinton camp is trying to use the Rove strategy -- use the opponent's strength against him. There are two problems. One, it's a Karl Rove strategy, and therefore morally repugnant. Two, it won't work because she's a Democrat and therefore will not get the media to parrot her attacks and cooperate in the lies and vilification. The media only does that for Republicans.
