It’s sad that Democrats would be asking a question like this:

“What do the Democrats do if–yes: if, if, if–the surge appears to have succeeded?“

That you’d even have to worry about what political position you’d be forced to take should the U.S. succeed is quite telling.

Here’s a hint, though. You could begin by congratulating the brave men and women of our military for their success. But that probably never crossed your mind.
