I don't think the Dems care about the war if a Republican isn't president. A handful of progressives do. And some conservatives are starting to question the premise that national security = policing the world, thank heaven.... or thanks to Ron, I should say........

Although I bet a PORTION of the tea party will stop being pissed off when GOP are in power, too. I just don't know how many of them will be satisfied at that point. The meme on the left is that it all goes away with a GOP president, but that is wrong, because people a lot of people woke up with TARP and they aren't going fully back to sleep, even if they aren't on the streets.
