The Texas governor is first out of the gate with a statement commenting on Muammar Qadhafi's imminent demise, but not taking a position on the overall wisdom in the mission in Libya (and using a spelling of Qadhafi that I have not seen before):

"The crumbling of Muammar Ghadafi’s reign, a violent, repressive dictatorship with a history of terrorism, is cause for cautious celebration.

"The lasting impact of events in Libya will depend on ensuring rebel factions form a unified, civil government that guarantees personal freedoms, and builds a new relationship with the West where we are allies instead of adversaries."

Meanwhile Michelle Bachmann accuses the Libyan rebels of being members of Hezbollah and Mitt Romney has called on the rebels to extradite the guy behind the Pan Am 103 bombing.

People commenting on this now are going to look as foolish as a sportscaster who would declare a football game won at halftime.

there's an awful lot of rueing the downfal of Gaddafi over on FR, mostly because they are afraid that Obama could get credit.

It really does seem that those folks would cheer another terrorist attack on the U.S. if it would hurt Obama politically.

The FR crowd was also ambivalent about Egypt.

So, its great when George Bush overthrows a tyrant but its horrible when a country's own people do so.

These neo-commies have it exactly backwards and they are the wrong side of history.

It's not that, it's that Obama is President so anything that happens on his watch must be bad.

If McCain were President they would be cheering the events in Egypt and Libya.

No, McLame and lip-wristed Lindsy chastised Obama for not doing enough.

President McCain may have intervened more directly and it could have turned out very badly.

Here's the strange thing about the Obama administration - overseas he's tells people to take initiative. Domestically, he tells people who have laying in front if the TV growing their bellies - just continue to lay there and we'll give you more tax money.
