Following their takeover of the Congress in November 2006, losing in Iraq looked like a sure thing for the Democrats. “Bush’s War” turns out badly, the Democrats regain the White House while solidifying their lead in the Congress.
It looked like a winning bet until very recently. And then, like the fortunes of the Dallas Cowboys against the Washington Redskins on Thanksgiving Day 1974, a change in command on the field brings about a change in momentum. (It was a helluva game. Read about it here.)
