Reply #26: Which Dems assumed what?

[vaberella]

When he was running for office he was definitely not promoting anti-war sentiments. He said to end our occupation of Iraq, which he began to do and he said to focus our attention on Afghanistan. Which is also what he is doing---and he supported the more troops. He does act moderately. After the McChrystal debacle it was safe to see the difference between HRC and Obama. HRC was like unlimited troops, unlimited war okay. and Obama took the middle of the road between her and Biden. However, again, he never stopped pushing this idea that Afghanistan is the threat and we need to go after it. If Dems believed otherwise, they disillusioned themselves. As a matter of fact, the poll above, if it's true, proves they heard him very clearly and were not disillusioned since they agree with the steps he's taking. DU Dems on the other hand are a whole other kettle of fish and I think when you say "Dems assumed" you were speaking about DU Dems not the rest of them in the US.
