Watch for Bush to promise to get out of Iraq quickly.
In 1968 and 1972, Richard Nixon promised to pull us out of Vietnam and those claims won over the stupid people in America. Bush will undoubtedly try a similar tactic.

1. Under *, if we get out of Iraq quickly.....................
it'll only be because we're invading Iran or Syria or Saudi Arabia.

2. I don't think so.
I think it is more probable that he will promise to "see the job through". We'll soon know.

3. Nope. That'd be a flip flop
he has promised to "stay the course" so that lots more GIs have to die for his mistake.

4. Nixon said he had a 'secret' plan to get out of Vietnam -
it was secret so he couldn't give any details at all. AND the electorate bought it. SECRET PLAN, part 2...coming up. Count on it.
