Yes, when we see Shrillery’s camp starting to re-spin their previous spin and start suggesting that Shrillery should preferred to the other Demagogues BECAUSE she voted for the war, then we’ll know the tide has turned. Edwards voted for it but has repudiated his own vote more emphatically and comprehensively than Shrillery, so he’ll have a hard time adjusting to the new realities.

I don’t think Shrillery will come out right away and say “the war was right but the admin. waged it badly” — but she’ll have surrogates doing so to try to modify the predominant position for the Demagogues.

She already said that the surge was working but we have to pull our troops out. I think that will be her response, since bringing the boys and girls back home is ALWAYS a popular stance (heck, I'D like them all to come home asap, but I want the job done right so we don't have to go back).

She's too clever, I think, for her own good. We're assuming that the leftists will just fall in and support her, but they have a hardcore which COULD, as ours did, stay home just enough to let their side lose.
