President Obama may not have handled the Syria crisis deftly, but according to polls, the public pretty much support the proposed deal to rid Syria of chemical weapons.  The fact that he started out wanting to launch a military strike, then changed his mind when the possibility of a diplomatic solution arose shows — in the minds of the electorate — that he’s capable of reassessing the situation as it changes and adapt his policy.

But according to Greg Sargent, the punditocracy inside the Beltway sees that as weak, disorganized, and vacillating, proving once again that most pundits are full of crap.  What a shock.
