#1 The Dems hope is that Iraq is resolved one way or the other before spring of 2008. If Iraq goes bad - a "quagmire" or, if the admin itself cuts and runs, then they will probably nominate an Iraq dove, Dean or Gore. If its a victory, then the nod goes to an Iraq hawk, Rodham-Clinton, Biden, or Bayh.

If the situation is unresolved and unclear, then its major internecine bloodletting over the issue, and an attempt to find a candidate (Edwards?) who can paper over the differences, as they tried to do in 2004. And they probably lose, as in 2004.

#2 If things are going as they are now, the Dems are gonna loose in '06 and get pummled again in '08. People preaching the nanny state and the rich are killing your grandma and babies mantra for the last 50 years isn't really appealing anymore.

#3 The most important thing the Internet can do right now is to detail *who* in the US consistently tried to undermine the war effort, and *who* supported our enemies by encouraging terrorism, tyranny, and oppression. Then, when all is said and done, that this collection be compiled into a "Who's Who" of scoundrels, so that in the future when they pretend to reasonableness in an effort to gain support and power, their names shall be easily found. Much like John Kerry's past came back to haunt him, we must remember who betrayed America *this time*.
