#1 only problem is that is not the story the general public sees. Last they heard of anything, its all IEDs, incompetent Iraqis, and our guys dying.

The press has deliberately mal-informed the public, and is now refusing to acknowledge the truth on the ground: that we have had military and political success in Iraq, and it is a result of the surge and the new tactics of Gen Petraeus.

They refuse to inform the general public, because if they were to do so it would expose their lies of commission and omission about the entire war effort, and people would start asking the press questions that the press does not want to answer (like bias, and driving political agenda harmful to the nation).

#2 But if anyone still insists on snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, they can vote for some silly a$$ed donk this November.
