The Times says Dems are giving up on "rapid" withdrawal from Iraq:
In the cacophony of competing plans about how to deal with Iraq, one reality now appears clear: despite the Democrats victory this month in an election viewed as a referendum on the war, the idea of a rapid American troop withdrawal is fast receding as a viable option.
I'm sorry, but when was a "rapid" withdrawal ever even an option for Democrats, let alone a "viable" option?
Oh yes, we wanted to cut and run. That's right.
