    I notice, among some anti-Obama people on the Left, a strange reticence to accept that Romney would be more likely to attack Iran.

        @ggreenwald @danielmarans Yes, it's just speculation. But Romney is advised by Liz Cheney, J. Bolton, Dan Senor. What are we to extrapolate?

        @mtracey Maybe Obama will only kill Iranians with sanctions instead of bombs and missiles. What a relief! @ggreenwald @danielmarans

        @ggreenwald Fair quibble. Maybe I should have said: I've noticed some are strangely unamenable to hearing out the argument.

        @ggreenwald I don't dismiss that R might be less likely to attack Iran; thought so for awhile myself. No more tho, given recent bellicosity.

        @nathanLfuller I'm basing this judgement on the statements of Romney/Ryan versus Obama/Biden, not the party apparatuses.
