I distinctly remember being disappointed with Huck last year over his lack of support for the surge.

Huck can spin this however he wants, he did not fully back the Pres.

Huck supported the president's right to make military decisions, not the surge itself.

It's not an unreasonable position, because Huck obviously doesn't have the same information the President has.

However, he really didn't support the surge itself.

Romney supported setting goals, but keeping them private so that they couldn't be used against us by our enemies. It's only common sense to expect that your military has set goals for itself, and drafted up a timetable. You need to have goals.

Romney did not support the Democrats call for a public timetable, which would have been a horrible mistake.

Both Romney and Huck are distorting each other's previous comments.
