The majority of Democrats do not agree with the Dhimmicrats who are in charge, but they have been able to delude themselves into denying that their party leaders were flat out traitors because of their collective hatred of Bush. Well Bush isn't running in this next election. And the contrast between the American position and the Dhimmicrat position will be bared for all to see. I expect the Joe Lieberman liberal but American wing of the Democrat party to stand up and spit in the eye of the George Soros moonbat wing of the Dhimmicrat party.

You may be right. There is some indicate of the ground shifting under the feet of the Democrats all ready. Seems the Blue Dogs have all ready quietly told the Leadership they will under no condition support the Pelosie-Murtha "Slow Bleed" program so that appears politically dead. Then it looks like the "Me Too" RINOS in the US Senate have told the Corrupt Harry Reid that he has gone a Resolution too far and they are not willing to support additional efforts to play PR games over Iraq.

So while it is always hard to know who has the real facts and who is merely playing PR games, (and you can never trust DC not to totally muck things up until the Congress is in Recess) but there are some indications someone sane has FINALLY got the DC Political Establishment's attention on Iraq.

That or the polling data on the issue is running real hard against the Democrats. Notice the complete absence of polling questions on Iraq recently? We got multiple poles a week from about Feb to Nov last year but suddenly no that the Democrats have the Congress how they are doing in publics opinion is no longer banner head line news.

Peach posted this on another thread but it deserves much wider attention. While I agree with the old Conservatives here that you can compromise TOO far in politics, their inablity to consider ANY compromise at all is equally foolish. Instructive to read what their political God President Reagan had to say about them. Reagan said this about compromise in his autobiography An American Life: "When I began entering into the give and take of legislative bargaining in Sacramento, a lot of the most radical conservatives who had supported me during the election didn't like it. "Compromise" was a dirty word to them and they wouldn't face the fact that we couldn't get all of what we wanted today. They wanted all or nothing and they wanted it all at once. If you don't get it all, some said, don't take anything. I'd learned while negotiating union contracts that you seldom got everything you asked for. And I agreed with FDR, who said in 1933: 'I have no expectations of making a hit every time I come to bat. What I seek is the highest possible batting average.' If you got seventy-five or eighty percent of what you were asking for, I say, you take it and fight for the rest later, and that's what I told these radical conservatives who never got used to it."
