He's pretty much correct. 2. What real choices did Obama have, given what he inherited? The proposed alternatives would have left us much worse off. 3. The Republican excuses are just so weak as to be laughable. If that's the best defense he can give them he's just another defender of false equivalency. 1. He’s pretty much correct.

He knows the issues, has a great voting record and is willing to work with others. I love his call for civil discourse. Joe would certainly have my vote as a Republican or and independent candidate.

The Powell doctrine is not a doctrine at all. You cannot fight without bloodshed and you cannot fight without risk of failure. The first Iraq war was a punk out - we just kicked Hussein out of Kuwait and never solved the problem. We just pretended that we solved the situation. Also, Scarborough is nicely avoiding the fact that it has been the Democrats and Obama that have been raising up the debt over the past four years (the Dems dominated Congress in 06) and so what O inheirited is his own mess. Also inheirited means nothing - Obama knew what he was getting into when he signed up for the presidency so he needs to stop whining, man up and fix this mess or go home. No one is accepting that excuse anymore - we're too broke to accept it. Scarborough is full of it. The Powell doctrine is not a doctrine at all.

He does appear on some lists of possible GOP candidates in 2012, and I would favor a candidate with his libertarian-conservative values in the race.
