3 U.S. senators visited Iraq this past weekend. One was Tom Daschle, and he stayed longer than just the duration of a meal. Hopefully South Dakotans will take note of this (Daschle retains the lead in recent polls, but his opponent's campaign has raised a formidable warchest).
I have the sneaking feeling that it would really benefit John Kerry to visit our troops and to make his visit of a serious duration - at least a day or two. The risks are well above those of a normal campaign stop, but the message he would send would be substantial and powerful.
