3. I maintain that a trip to Europe during the campaign season is an error.
Iraq and Afghanistan... ok, if he thinks he needs it. But I don't see him getting much benefit from a Europe trip at this point in time, that should happen after November 4th.

People are probably counting on him getting the kind of welcome that will hammer home a stark contrast to Bush and the public image he's been busily stomping into the ground worldwide the last 7 years... but I don't think that's going to sway many minds in the voter groups Obama needs to be winning over right now. He should be here hammering the economy.
