Progress to a country that isn't a haven for terrorists like AQ.

Stable, secular, peaceful - I see those as Iraqi problems to be eventually handled by Iraqi's.

"End game" - To me thats the defeat of those who want to attack America.

Progress towards what? A stable, secular government in a peaceful country? What percentage of the way did we get towards that?

You really see an end game here?


It doesn't matter.......Patraeus has won it again for the gipper. The surge will go on and we won't see any troops coming home until next summer right before the presidential elections. BTW Patraeus was the one who said in the Fall of 2003 that the training of the Iraqi troops was going well. Five months later, the report came out stating that the training was a disaster. Patraeus knows how to spin it. Anderson Cooper was interviewing him tonite.

"At the same time, the poll hints at Mr. Obama's potential strength in a general election. Some 26% of Republicans say that, among Democratic presidential prospects, they'd be most comfortable with Mr. Obama serving as president. Just 14% say they'd be most comfortable with Mrs. Clinton, buttressing arguments that she'd be a polarizing force at the top of the Democratic ticket."

From the latest NBC/Wall Street poll........interesting note.......GOPers prefer Obama over any other Dem candidate for president.
