But, as his supporters like yours truly have long insisted, he is no panacea in foreign policy. Alex Massie questions the limits of a renewed US-European relationship:

The Security Card trumped everything during the Cold War but these are changed times. And there were, in any case, always more differences than seemed the case then too, these days they're much clearer to see.
