Nothing has come out from CNN and MSNBC yet... But I am wondering if this is the cracks in the armor of Obama’s admin... Granted Gates is bush
holdover and Obama is looking for a replacement. So maybe Gates knows his time is up and is trying to push for it or is it politically motivated?
Gates says "Administration can’t sit on its hands.", page 1

"Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Tuesday that the Obama administration cannot wait for the Afghan election to be resolved before making a decision on troop levels, appearing to be at odds with White House officials who have tied a decision on U.S. strategy to the resolution of the election and political stability.
Gates suggested the election would not have an immediate impact on the overall situation in the country.
He told reporters aboard his plane to Tokyo that the administration cannot "sit on our hands."
