AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on expectations regarding John Kerry's potential influence on U.S. troop withdrawal from Iraq, with a focus on his anti-war stance.

Just ONCE, I wanted to see a post titled Status Update that was not a blatant, annoying spam post by a new member. So here it is. Today was a good day here in Northern Wisconsin. Fall colors are here, no mosquitos, no deer flies, and mild temperature, so my morning run was unusually nice. Only two meetings today, and both went well.
