Re:

"Again, the question really is: what will the definition of "success" be in this war? Answer from the likes of them: "Voting Republican!"

>>> I would argue that 'wars' tend to produce results somewhat more measurable than most political events.

>>> You question should have been phrased: "what will the definition of "success" be in this government?"

>>> It is to our eternal shame as a nation that so many important matters are judged solely by what results they produce in the next election cycle... as if the policies themselves had no effect at all out in the 'real world', or if that effect really didn't matter.

>>> Just once, I'd like to see politicians shape policy based upon true long-term national interests... not short-term political considerations.
