I'm with Daniel Larison here. My biggest problem with the Obamacons is that while they are remarkably clear-eyed about the Republicans -- no, a McCain administration is not likely to make the federal government smaller, cut meaningful amounts of spending, overturn Roe v. Wade, secure the borders, etc. -- they are willing to strain to believe all kinds of things about Obama that are similarly unlikely. I understand why some antiwar conservatives are willing to roll the dice on Obama and Iraq given the alternative. But let's not pretend it is anything other than rolling the dice and let's certainly not pretend there is much else to it.
