"The real quagmire is at home, where the kinkily gleeful relish of defeatism manifested by Cindy Sheehan, Joan Baez, Ted Kennedy et al. bears less and less relationship to anything happening over there."

I don't think it's defeatism: I think the Dems realize that when (not if) Iraq resurrects itself, there are going to be a lot of people down on the Democrat plantation that will start wondering when it's gonna be THEIR turn.

If this goes into effect as planned in October, the GOP has just over a year to show just who was FOR it and who was AGAINST.

November 2006 should turn out to be a bloodbath for the Dems, with 2008 as possibly their last election as a party.

Let's not get manic. The MSM ain't going away, and it ain't turning Republican. The MSM will change the subject. They always change the subject from Republican success. Always.

Is Afghanistan a full-up democratic republic? Change the subject. Are Cindy's supporters outnumbered in Crawford? Change the subject. That is really the only constant in American politics - the MSM changes the subject whenever Republicans have the advantage.
