More important how the question will poll a year from now if no WMD are found in Iraq. People need time to pause and reflect if the Iraq invasion was really a good idea. Twelve months later, we only see the cost, the bereaved families and the messy ongoing occupation and reconstruction (I spent a few years in Bosnia after the war, it will be similar).

Imagine a Bush-Kerry election debate where Kerry asks Bush, "If Hussein was the next Hitler, why did we find no WMD? How did we take the entire country in a few weeks if he was such a threat? And why didn't we apply the same policy to other regimes?"

The contradictions will pile up. Eventually this may look like "Wag the Dog - The Sequel".

JMHO.
