To answer my own question, what I would have done differently than Bush is to be much harsher with respect to Afghanistan.

I would still be pounding them, civilian casualties and famine be damned, until Bin Laden turned up dead or alive. I would have made the nation even more of a barren wasteland than it already is. I would have put more heat on Pakistan, sure they have nukes but they can't stand against us. I would attack within Pakistan's border if I had reason to believe Bin Laden was hiding there.

So there is an alternative argument, take it for what you will. The dem candidate has to offer up an alternative plan, simply rejecting Bush's plan won't get the job done.
