My bet is they would not have been freed by now, or for a long time. The Repubs would have gone goofy over the Korean propaganda that has come from the incident and would have refused to talk with them.

McCain/Palin would have likely threatened military action.

The Repubs can spin all they want. Bottom line: The journalists are freed. Let Kim & Co. spew their propaganda. The rest of the world understands what he's about.

1. Palin would have winked at them, and Kim Jong Il would have shot them.
