Will the majority of Dems identify as solidly anti-war before...

[UDenver20]

... the GOP effectively splits on the issue enough for it to matter?

Let's face it, the schism in the RNC leadership and face-men is growing wider by the day... Sooner or later, the moderate electorate will follow suit.

Will we get ourselves in a position to capitalize on this looming opportunity or will our leadership still be sitting around with our thumbs up our asses?

Why, or why not?

1. Interesting that you posted this. I'm noticing that today's RW talking

point is how the failure of the Iraq War is causing a difficult schism among the DEMS. Of course Hagel saying "let's get out" is not a schism between some Repubs and Bushco... :eyes:

3. Most DC Dems ARE Republicans. That's the only conclusion that fits their

actions. Therefore they will "stay the course," givng Hagel or someone like him an easy win.

Why will they do that? That's their JOB, to lose to the Republicans.
