I agree Iraq is a problem. Kissinger has a good article about the problems in Iraq and it seems clear that Wolfowitz and Rumsfield underestimated how difficult it would be to bring that country to democracy. I do think that thousands of more military deaths is overly pessimistic (I would hope and pray that 50\month times 18 months is pessimistic). At least Bush has the resolve to deal with the situation. They need to involve Kissinger and Powell type thinkers into the Iraq solution.

If the democrats had nominated a moderate democrat with integrity (is there still such a thing?) I would consider voting democratic. At least Bush will look at how to solve the social security problem rather than starting new government programs (the Blue Cross health insurance for everyone for example) to excacerbate the funding problem we have with existing government programs.
