A couple of points:
As I stated in an earlier blog, I do not expect to see President Obama fulfill his promise to evacuate troops within the 16 month timetable that he has put forth. I'm very surprised to see him back himself into a corner recently by ardently reiterating that pledge. The left wing of the democratic party is going to vote for him no matter what, so why is he working so hard to reassure them? He has successfully put himself in quite the bind when he becomes president. Either he:
1) Lives up to his campaign pledge and removes troops within the timeframe he says, and seriously risks destroying any gains made in Iraq, severely hurting his chances at reelection.
2) He does the responsible thing and maintains troops levels by what the conditions on the ground dictate, hurting his chances of even regaining the nomination.
So he's damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. I still think he'll take option #2 because that is the less...
