Romney on Iraq   [Ramesh Ponnuru]

I find the reaction to his remarks last night a little dismaying. Do conservatives really want to tie themselves to the position that the surge is not only working, but that there can be no doubt on the score and that anyone who acknowledges the existence of doubt is a heretic? As for Romney's looking forward to a possible troop drawdown—something Bush has also done!—what's our bottom line there? Do we want troops there forever? Is that what conservatives should want Republicans to campaign on next year?
