That old devil OODA Loop

Political analyst Michael Barone says Mac is not only inside Barry’s OODA Loop, but inside Big Media’s loop as well. What fun. We get to watch both "unravel," as loop-creator John Boyd used to say– while their flung grenades boomerang and blow up in their own faces.

Is Mac inside Barry’s OODA Loop?

Chet Richards, one of the guardians of the theories and memory of the late, great Air Force fighter-pilot and military strategist John Boyd questions this contention of Charlie Martin’s in American Thinker re Mac’s choice of Sarah Palin for veep. Martin uses the term too loosely, suggests CR who says it’s too early to tell. CR’s claim that the pick was predictable, however, is probably unique. No one else I know of expected Mac to pick a woman. I think the old Navy fighter pilot, indeed, has generally been inside Baby Barry’s OODA Loop for some time now with his sharp, quickly-produced teevee ads. Whether he can stay there remains to be seen.
