It's Time for Democrats to Just Say No on Iraq
George Bush's super-hyped speech calling for escalation in Iraq was a political disaster. The American people now overwhelmingly oppose Bush's handling of the war (72%), oppose Bush's escalation plan (61%), and want to bring all our troops home in 2007 (56%).
These polls are terrifying to Republicans - their own pollster told them "if U.S. boots are still on the ground in Iraq and U.S. blood is still being spilled there at the end of the year, the GOP disaster in 2008 will eclipse 2006." Even Bob Novak predicts an "electoral catastrophe."

Presidential Candidates Should Take the Lead
The 2008 Presidential campaign is in full swing, and the Democratic candidates want our support.
Let's tell them what they must do to earn it!
1. Deny all funds for Bush's escalation
2. Support immediate redeployment of U.S. troops, to be completed by the end of 2007 using the funds already appropriated
3. Oppose the $100 billion "Supplemental" appropriation in March and any other bills to extend the U.S. occupation of Iraq
We are keeping track of the positions of all the candidates here: http://www.democrats.com/democrats-iraq-scorecard
You can click on the name of each candidate and email our three principles. They are listening to us very carefully - let's speak up!
