Bad As Rumsfeld?" The title jars, doesn't it. The more so, since
Defense Secretary Robert Gates found his predecessor, Donald Rumsfeld,
such an easy act to follow. But the jarring part reflects how

<span style="font-size: 10pt;">Over the past few months, Defense
Secretary Robert Gates has generated accolades from FCM pundits—like
the Washington Post's David Ignatius—that read like letters of
recommendation to graduate school. This comes as no surprise to those
of us familiar with Gates' dexterity in orchestrating his own
advancement. What DOES come as a surprise is the recurring rumor that
President-elect Barack Obama may decide to put new wine in old
wineskins by letting Gates stay.</span><br><!-- START of joscomment --><!-- END of joscomment --> </td>
