The Democrats are snookered, improvement in Iraq after the surge so they cant say its a failure so they try a new ploy, yes there is success but not enough success, they don't want to be the party of doom and gloom who want are seen as wanting failure. The are stuck the base of the Democratic Party want out but the base in the not the whole of the USA. If more success in Iraq then 2008 Iraq can be a positive development for Republicans and a negative for the Democrats.

Obama on the Attack! The Wife that is..!!
If your down go on the attack, and even better get the wife to be the Vice - President role, Michelle Obama goes after Hillary Clinton. In essence if your home life is not under control how can you control the USA and the West that is the Obama argument. I wonder what she could be thinking about!! surely not Bill Clinton. How come the best attacks are coming from the wife's, Elizabeth Edwards and Michelle Obama.
BBC and Iraq
Just seen Newsnight, typical line the UK is losing in Southern Iraq, the answer not send more troops but admit defeat. What if this type of logic had been around during WW1 and WW2, Germany winning two fold.

Robert Novak
A very good review for the Memoir's of Robert Novak. Cant wait to read it, looks very interesting on American Politics.
Death of Michael Deaver
This morning VIEWS was sad to hear of the death of Michael Deaver at 69. One of the closes aides to President Ronald Reagan, a master of image and how it was shown on the old TV. American Politics has lost a giant in the art of politics.
NYT and Iraq
The NYT again wanting it both ways, one day Iraq can be won the next its back the old line for troops to be withdrawn. Using Sources but no names to state that the Administration is moving for gradual removal of troops. If I was Bush I would every time the NYT ran such a story would put an extra thousand troops in to make a point.
2008 Election Round Up
Time: Joe Klein of Primary Colors fame gives the nod to Romney in 2008. One gets the impression that the Main Stream Media don't want to see a Giuliani v Clinton, because Giuliani would win. Romney would have problems getting the base out, harsh but true. Don't be surprised to see more in the media that is positive about Romney.
ABC NEWS: Looking at the chance of a Giuliani - McCain Ticket. A very thoughful and interesting article.
