Domenici's Defection

With Sen. Pete Domenici now breaking with President Bush on Iraq, it seems increasing likely that by the fall, there will be some sort of compromise on, as Domenici put it, "a new strategy that will move our troops out of combat operations and on the path to continuing home." It may not be a immediate or even clearly phased withdrawal, but at least a movement in that direction. The question will be whether the more liberal members of Congress would accept such a compromise, given the restive anti-war base that wants the "Troops Home Now!"
