'08 GOP CANDIDATES ON THE SURGE   [Kate O'Beirne]

Today's Hotline quotes from a Sam Brownback (who is in Iraq) press release: "While we cannot make a precipitious withdrawal, we can transfer more security responsibility to the Iraqis and reduce the threat to American troops." Isn't that the failed status quo? And from a Mitt Romney release:  "In consultation with Generals, military experts and troops who have served on the ground in Iraq, I believe securing Itaqi civilians requires additional troops.  I support adding five brigades in Baghdad and two regiments in Al-Anbar province." According to John Edwards, that means favoring the "McCain Doctrine."
