Yes I know the war should end now but lets look at reality for a minute.
1. By promoting Petraeus Republicans are TOTALLY nullified as it is one of their lord and saviors taking over.
2. IF Petraeus is able to somehow bring Afghanistan under control and we leave in 2011; Obama wins
3. IF #2 does happen, repubs cannot even bring up national security in 2012
4. Petraeus will NOT able to run (I know he said he won't) because he will be linked to OBama's war strategy and since it is in his best interest to be successful he will try his hardest thus making Obama look good in 2012 if #2 happens.
I could be completely wrong but initially this is good politics
