(a) bullshit -- I'll vote for Republicans but you don't vote for Democrats
(b) to the extent that Democrats are putting aside their best views about Iraq for the sake of politics, they are soft-pedaling their opposition to what the President is doing for fear of being accused of undercutting the troops and losing the war -- there are lots of Dems who seem to be doing this, and they are being attacked for it from the left
(c) name Democrats who think escalation is a good idea but who are opposing the war for political purposes -- I can't think of one
(d) since you're the GOP insider, tell us who is pressuring the President to do what on Iraq for what GOP political purpose, and tell us how it's working
