Patrick Ruffini addreses a taboo subject in the media, signs of success in Iraq:
Early indications are that the troop surge into Baghdad is working. It hasn't been reported on widely, but murders in Baghdad are down 70%, attacks are down 80%, Mahdi Army chief Moqtada al-Sadr has reportedly made off for Iran, and many Baghdadis who had fled the violence now feel it's safe enough to return.
The question is: If evidence of success continues to mount, will Democrats cease clamoring to stop the surge, or will efforts to stop it get even more urgent?
Wait. Don't answer that.
