The last couple of weeks the Dems have made it abundantly clear that they are completely opposed to Bush's approach to the GWOT, so they would get no credit for a successful de-fanging of Iran.

IMHO, Iran is now the key to the post-Saddam situation. If we can destabilize that regime and it falls, the picture completely changes. That would leave Syria the only remaining state supporter of the various terrorist groups in the region and I do not believe they could sustain that alone, cut off from Iranian money and support.

Good points. I think W is about to be "misunderestimated" again.
