ANOTHER FAMOUS OBAMA VICTORY - AT 7:24 P.M. ET:  For an administration that hasn't scored a single foreign-policy success, despite all the hype, the Obamans can't seem to stop marketing ridiculous ideas:

KABUL (Reuters) – Taliban insurgents reject a U.S. offer of "honorable reconciliation," a top spokesman said on Wednesday, calling it a "lunatic idea" and saying the only way to end the war was to withdraw foreign troops.

With the Afghan conflict now in its eighth year, NATO-led forces and the Taliban are locked in a bloody stalemate with violence set to rise further this year as more U.S. troops arrive and seek to contain the insurgency ahead of August elections.

COMMENT:  Earth to Hillary Clinton:  These people don't like us, and won't make peace with us until they win.  Got that?
