"the NVA had the staying,power and we didn't."

Yep, says it all does it not?? At that point. for the US it was merely a question of money. We were pulling the troops Out.
Amazing how the dumbocrats make such a big deal about the guy who said this:

"We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans--born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage--and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.

Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty."

Aside from the fact that the Democrats got us into a war they refused to win, they refused to allow anyone else to win... and the war was easily winable.
The central problem takes the name of a film made in the 30's by Riefenstahl, "Triumph Of The Will".
And we face the same problem today. We certainly do not lack the economic ability to to win the war against terrorism. But if we elect Kerry, we will certainly lack the will.
