I feel compelled to post a brief summary of the manner in which each of the 6 main presidential campaigns (3 Democrats, 3 Republicans) are handling the Virginia Tech tragedy on their websites.

I'm starting to question whether passing Iraq withdrawal legislation is the right thing to do.
Now don't get me wrong -- I'm not about to suddenly start claiming, as a somewhat delusional McCain did yesterday, that it's suddenly safe and pleasant to roam the streets of Baghdad, or that we're on the cusp of victory only to surrender suddenly. All of that is rhetorical BS, as most people are well aware.
What I am willing to question, however, is whether withdrawal legislation is the correct strategic move at this time. Most of us have already acknowledged that it's more of a symbolic move, given that it will certainly be vetoed, and that we really don't have the votes to override that veto.
