A good reaction from Mitt. Rudy had some good comments on Fox as well. I haven't heard McCain's yet but this does seem to play to a strength that he has. What I've seen from Huckabee has been in the "oh, dear! How sad!" variety of comments. Not bad but not good either.

Obama's seemed generic and forced and Hillary's were less than useless. I haven't heard of any from Edwards but I'm sure they'll have something to do with how this affects the poor people of the world.

Mitt Ping!

"I haven't heard of any from Edwards but I'm sure they'll have something to do with how this affects the poor people of the world."

Probably something about there being two Pakistans.

[Reaganesque]

LOL!

[Antoninus]

At least that’s his view on it today. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.

Maybe Mitt can have her baptized now.

Nominated for post of the day.

When Edwards finally makes a statement, which one of his Two Americas will he address, or will he address both Americas?

So far, Edwards has only issued a statement but not gone on camera like most of the other wannabes.

I agree a good reaction from Mitt.

[ANGGAPO]

No doubt Bush will be blamed for it.

Yes, our candidates are serious men, unlike the UnAmerican Democrat Party.

Like these guys or not, they are at least adults when it comes to foreign policy. The same CAN be said about Fred Thompson and Duncan Hunter. The same CAN NOT be said about Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul.

Governor Romney issued this statement:

"We are still learning the details of today's tragic events in Pakistan, but this is a stark reminder that America must not only stay on high alert, but remain actively engaged across the globe. Pakistan has long been a key part in the war against extremism and radical jihadists. For those who think Iraq is the sole front in the War on Terror, one must look no further than what has happened today. America must show its commitment to stand with all moderate forces across the Islamic world and together face the defining challenge of our generation – the struggle against violent, radical jihadists.

"At this difficult time, our thoughts and prayers go to the family of Benazir Bhutto, and to all the people of Pakistan who are fighting against extremist forces that would commit such heinous acts as the whole world has witnessed today."

Suddenly Campaign '08 is suffused with the seriousness it deserves as the country watches a nuclear power destabilized via terrorism. I am reminded of the hideous Des Moines Register and YouBoob debates and the silliness MSM brought to a campaign that should have always had national security at its center.~~Hugh Hewitt

How anyone thinks Huckabee -- with his Carteresque foreign policy pronouncements -- can protect our country effectively is beyond me.

Then there is also the possibility that he was only speaking figuratively.

Here in my little town the old timers liked Mitt’s father but say Mitt is too much like a used car salesman.
