<\/a>\"This War is lost...\" -- Sen. Harry Reid, Nevada, Senate Majority Leader, 2006 <\/em><\/p>

From Eric Dondero:<\/p>

Here are some poll numbers that you're unlikely to see commented upon over at some of the isolationist\/non-interventionist leftwing Libertarian sites like LewRockwell.com, Justin Raimondo's AntiWar.com, Radley Balko's The Agitator, The Free Liberal, or at Reason On-line. You may recall virtually all of these sites and organizations allied with the Left to help defeat Republicans in the 2006 and '08 election cycles over the Iraq War. <\/p>

Seems Americans have changed their opinions on the War quite substantially since then, from the views expressed by the Democrats and Leftwing Libertarians. By a large majority they don't seem to agree with the sentiment that the \"War was lost.\" <\/p>

Now this from NBC's Mark Murray via MSNBC<\/a>:<\/p>

Here's a final set of numbers from our new NBC\/WSJ poll that we find fascinating: 57% say the Iraq war has been successful, versus 40% who say it has been unsuccessful. <\/p>

It's a reversal from July 2008, when 43% said Iraq was successful, and 53% said it was unsuccessful. <\/p>

What's more, nearly six in 10 (59%) believe the U.S. has accomplished as much as can be expected in Iraq, and 70% say they approve of President Obama's plan to pull most troops out of Iraq by 2011. <\/p><\/blockquote>

Another recent poll found that 44% of Americans surveyed would prefer George W. Bush as President rather than the current occupant of the White House. <\/p>

Seems that the Bush legacy is turning out as some on the Right had predicted: He kept us safe, and safe from further terrorist attacks for 7 years. <\/p>

And he held firm in the dark days of the War, when just about everyone was aligned against him. Bottom line - the Surge worked amazingly well. <\/p>
