TP, Those who thought about the invasion for more than five minutes knew that Iraq was weak, much weaker than it was for the first Bush war.

No, you're changing history. From Scott Ritter, one of the most vocal anti-war spokesmen:

We will not win this fight. America will loose this war.

Saddam Hussein may die... But you know what?

I'm betting that Saddam's gonna be around a lot longer than anyone can predict.

I'm betting that we don't capture Bhagdad.

I'm betting that we stall outside Bhagdad.

I'm betting that this becomes an absolute quagmire.

Of course, later on Ritter claims victory for having called the quagmire. Kind of like Fleck claiming victory for having called the bear market. Analyst B.S. isn't restricted to Wall Street.
