Poll question: The view of the Dems wrt the Iraq War will look a lot like the view of the Dems after theVietnam War
The premise here is that Idiot Boy will run the clock and we will do the withdrawal.

In Vietnam, we were seen to have more balls and were consequently blamed (by the Great Wurlitzer) for causing Nixon to get out.

This time, without balls, we won't do it until we get the white house.

Either way, we'll get painted as cowards and cut and runners and it will stick.

(Note: the above is not my own view of things ..... just some 'common wisdom' kinda stuff. So answer the poll if you like, but don't bother debating me about something for which you have no idea what my view is.)
