It's the Opponents

Atrios wonders why Heather Wilson (DR-NM), who's actually somewhat moderate by House standards, suddenly decided to hate freedom and embolden our enemies. The answer turns out to be pretty simple; she has a well funded challenger with high name recognition. If I were in her shoes, I'd be looking for a good way to distance myself from Bush as well.

Uncle! I clearly need to learn more about the Armed Forces, seeing how Robert Farley put me in my place. I agree that even without an Assistant Secretary for SO/LIC, special forces will still get plenty of attention. But I think low-intensity conflicts are already getting the short shrift, so I'm reluctant to see the Pentagon get rid any staffers who work on such issues.
