This sounds like double speak to me...

Are we really there to "balance" the power in the region, and do "many countries" really want us to take on that role.

I agree with Mika

It seems pretty clear that Palin will run for the nomination for 2012. Will she win it? Maybe, Bobby Jindal would give her a run for the money.
