Who Wants to Win?

There are no Democrap presidential candidates who "have a plan" to win the war in Iraq. All of them seem to want to lose.

There is not much action from the Republican side of the aisle either among the stated candidates.

This is mystifying for several reasons: although leaders are elected to lead and not follow polls, the polls do show Americans want to win in Iraq. The polls also show Americans still believe we can win.

The real reason to win is yes, indeed, defeat there will cause the terrorists to attack us here. They (terrorists) have said they will.

America will also find it difficult, if not impossible, to find allies who will trust our word in the near term, oh say 20 to 30 years.

The presidential candidate who has a clear plan to win in Iraq, and the troop surge plan may win, will be elected president. The fundamental role of a president is to be commander-in-chief.

Who can, and will, step up to the plate?
