A third of self-identified Republicans polled are fed up with the Iraq situation, along with about 70% of the independents and 90% of the Dems, and meanwhile all of the GOP candidates but one are talking about the prospect of not only staying in Iraq indefinitely, but broadening the conflict and nuking Iran.
I mean, holy cow! Talk about "out of touch with reality!!"
Whether 99.9% of Freepers like it or not, Iraq and the Middle East are going to once again, as in 2006, be the defining issue of this election. Do we want to charge fearlessly into another butt-whooping at the polls with a candidate who alienates 35% of Republicans and 70% of the independents?
For goodness sakes, people like you probably whine about Grenada.
