POWER LINE AND SENATOR LAMONT: WRONG ON THE IRAQ WAR

POWER LINE:
the Iraq war has been disastrous politically for the Republicans
THIS IS WRONG.

  • THE GOP LOST CONTROL OF THE SENATE BECAUSE OF MACCACAGATE.

  • AND THEY LOST CONTROL OF THE HOUSE BECAUSE OF FOLEYGATE.

  • AND THE OVER-ARCHING ISSUE WHICH DAMPENED OVERALL GOP TURNOUT WAS THE FACT THAT THE GOP HAD NOT CONTROLLED SPENDING.

THE IRAQ WAR DID NOT HURT THE GOP IN THE 2006 ELECTION.

IF IT HAD BEEN THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE IN 2006, THEN JOE LIEBERMAN WOULD HAVE LOST.

Er, you are aware of what public opinion polling was at the time regarding the Bush regime's handling of the invasion of Iraq?
