Surging Ahead

The military blog Blackfive talks about the fact that in Iraq, the surge seems to be working -- but the Democrats don't want it to work. "Americans do not cotton to losers and that is exactly what the leadership of the Democratic Party represents. The public has begun to hear about progress and the polls are actually switching, the problem for the Dems is they can't retreat from their calls for defeat." The Democrats are defeatists not only in war time but in peace time. They like it when things go wrong so they can blame everyone else.
