Seems to be alien to Obama '08 supporters too, at least the non-partisan ones who've been smart enough to stop supporting him.

What if there is a stalemate?

How long should we keep bombing?
What if the rebels do win and they turn out to be terrorists with a State power?

Hmm...the liberals who are abandoning Obama are far more educated than a West Point grad.

It's not clear that you know what "educated" means. You use it in the weirdest ways.
