Not bad, but think he needs to be pinned down more. Does he support permanent bases in Iraq? What exactly does he mean by phased redeployment? I am also curious what he thought of the plans Edwards and Richardson put forward. If he would support them or, if not, what he would reject.

I also would love to know exactly what he told the Conservative Party that led them to believe he supported the war and when he said it. Let's not forget that Vito Fossella, to choose an example, was all over the place on Social Security, telling some people he was for Bush's privatization scheme and others that he wasn't. What he is saying now can't be the same as what he told the Conservative Party. I'd like to hear more detail on what he said differently, when and why.

This is a particularly good line: "Tortures such as “water boarding” are unacceptable and whatever rationale exists for short term needs, will harm our nation’s credibility and long term interests across the globe."
