Palin and The McClellan Factor


A lot of people are wondering who the “McClellan” character was that Sarah Palin was referring to, with many guessing that she’s been consulting long-dead failed Civil War General George McClellan for advice on Afghanistan. But another colleague suggested that she’s mentally combined General McKiernan, the commanding officer in Afghanistan, and David Kilcullen into a single ten-foot tall counterinsurgency superman.

1. If she's seeking his advice on either war or campaign policy, that can only be good for us

2. I just assumed she thought Scottie was running the army in Afghanistan, now.
