-especially with her calling it "a first step" - which suggests that where Kerry and Obama are limiting this to CW - she is all in on other issues likely including regime change.

I can't believe that she is being that hawkish. She could avoid saying anything until things are less in flux. As to now running for the GE - that is precisely the mistake she made in 2008.

Interesting that Obama discussed it. That likely means he told Kerry to drop the suggestion because nothing had happened yet.
