While we must acknowledge this engagement's success, it is not sustainable. The Eisenhower CSG is not playing the game to win; they are playing to not lose. They are like the team sitting on a one-point lead at halftime and trying to run out the clock. The Eisenhower must be successful 100 percent of the time; the Houthis only need to occasionally have a missile or drone leak through to achieve their mission. //

Winning teams never really back off... they might do it once or twice but, the ones that win and do it consistently, have learned that stopping at playing the game brings them losses that they hate and, when that happens, they formulate a hard and fast rule that they never back off until they've won.

I'm not sure Biden's team... gets that. Playing to not beat a team too bad, even if they are very, very bad, hurts both teams.

I hate the way Biden plays the game but, he's running the team... at least for another year or so.
