Reporting from Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt -- The Obama administration has already concluded that a diplomatic overture to Iran, one of the central promises of the president's election campaign, is unlikely to persuade Tehran to give up its nuclear ambitions.

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told the foreign minister of the United Arab Emirates in a private meeting Monday that it is "very doubtful" a U.S. approach will convince Iran to relent, said a senior State Department official, who spoke on condition of anonymity under customary diplomatic rules.

He (Richter) goes on to say how merely saying "oh well, we tried" will "strengthen our position." He obviously hasn't been paying attention to, oh, all of history.
