Samantha Power, Obama shill and lightning rod for the "Israeli Lobby" is no longer associated with the campaign. Her fall not so much being the object of the so-called lobby's ire but rather a hiccup of unadulterated honesty - she called Hillary a "monster." Despite being a fan of her Pulitzer prize winning book, A Problem From Hell: America in the Age of Genocide, I am not a fan of hers. She comes from the foreign policy school that seems to think that it is great to use the military for anything at all as long as it does not have anything whatsoever to do with our national interests. My only concern is that she has blown up too soon. There is ample time between now and January for her to resurface in an Obama administration.
