What will the dems do now?

Here is an excellent article by Victor Davis Hanson, a classics professor from CA who is a prolific writer about ancient warfare and ties to current wars and how we fight. It's almost too good to be true, that those liberal dems who voted for a quick successful campaign to topple the bad man Saddam, who then turned on the President and the troops and declared defeat, are now searching for a politically expedient way to explain the decrease in violence, the Anbar Awakening and the political progress in the Iraqi government (granted slow but progress is progress). I try not to be an "I told you so" type of person (okay okay, not all the time), and I certainly was not on TV steadfastly proclaiming all this was going to transpire but I did have faith that if we could withstand the democratic anti-war onslaught and gain some success, the American people would either lean towards support or not be as against the war, feeding more 'breathing room' and giving our commanders flexibility and not telling the Iraqi people, the rest of the Middle East and every anti-American terrorist that we are weak and not willing to bleed for what we feel is necessary for victory in our battles.
