Stalemate Shaping Up in Libya?

Too bad someone didn't start bombing Qaddafi's murderous minions a week to 10 days ago. Now it looks like a long stalemate is most likely in Libya. I keep reading ridiculous wishful thinking in the U.S. media that maybe Qaddafi will step down, maybe there will be a negotiated exit for him, maybe there will be a coup against him, maybe his inner circle will turn against him. All nonsense. This is like Hitler, writ small. He doesn't have a government, he has a cult of personality. And those still with him are committed. And all you have to do is listen to the man (and review his history) to see how ridiculous it is to think there's a snowball's chance in hell he'll throw in the towel. The man's a megalomaniac. Only force will remove him.
