#2 Way to go, Gal! Will the house Dems support her or Obama? Probably some will stay with her and others will go the other way. This could mean a mighty split in the Democrats dam against the Republicans. The Republicans may regain some real power in the aftermath of this great division.

#4 She'll squawk for a while to placate her base, but she'll go along.

The surge is supposed to end a few months shy of the 2010 election. If it goes well, she'll stay quiet or figure out a way to get the Democrats the praise. If it doesn't, she can always claim she "had doubts" and buff her antiwar credentials.

#5 A few months shy of the 2012 elections. Same deal, slightly different time fame. The Bus can handle the 2010 elections.

#6 No, the withdrawal of all troops from Afghanistan is supposed to be completed by mid 2012. The surge itself is supposed to be done by 2010. The former helps the President. The latter target-date is designed to help the Democrats in the House and Senate.
