Andrew Sullivan:

He’s despatching Lindsey and Joe as emissaries to the country immediately. He’s on the phone with Sakashvilli daily. He’s giving press conferences. He’s warning of a new Tsarist empire. You can tell what sends him into high-energy zones: a clear enemy abroad. He knows black and white; and he knows war. It gives him clarity and strength. Up next: Iran and China. Oh, the conflicts we can have …

If this is the dynamic you want to see in the next president, McCain is your man.

Amen!
