Two optimistic accounts of Georgia

I don’t really buy them, but for what it’s worth, a couple of respectable sources have somewhat optimistic accounts of the Russo-Georgian war. The Belmost Club (two days ago) thinks it’s not over, that the Georgian army is intact and has fallen back to a defensible position. Classical Values (yesterday) thinks that Georgia is okay and overall this is actually a win for the United States.

I’d like to believe this, but it’s hard to reconcile with the reality of advancing Russian tank columns.

UPDATE: Here’s another.
