My Father lives in VA.

He has always voted Republican.....guess what, he voted for Webb!!

Put that together with RECORD voter turn-out in VA...(red state)
That tells me Repubs in serious trouble.

If VA goes blue, many others will follow suit.

One can debate whether or not we should have invaded Iraq until the proverbial cows come home. Everyone has their own perspective on that issue and no amount of arguing is going to change anyone's opinion. I don't doubt GWB's intentions, however misguided, were good. It would be very difficult to not believe a stable, somewhat democratic Iraq would be a good thing for the middle East and the US.

But the ineptitude of the conduct of the war both in Afghanistan and Iraq is mind-boggling and I don't see how anyone who is paying attention could argue otherwise. It appears to me that their war plan consisted of taking the best case scenario at all times. And the jaws of victory opened but briefly....

Properly planned, the War in Iraq would've been a slam dunk(like the 'other' war in the Gulf).

The rest of your commentary i agree with 100%.
