Inside the OODA loop

Found in the commentary here, a very insightful take on McCain vs. Obama-

The fighter pilot vs the community organizer.

McCain is inside Obama's OODA loop. Speed of action forces the other guy to react. Once he is in the reactive mode he is lost.

How can you tell that is true? McCain is forcing Obama to make errors.

Take the house thing. Americans don't care how many - this is the land of opportunity. What they do care about is - were they honestly earned. Rezko.

Pull the trigger John!

Thanks, Glenn!

A little Heinlein...

Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

This is known as "bad luck."

Tell me how this is wrong.
