Not to say "I told ya' so" or anything

I hope the Obama campaign has an effective strategy for dealing with this.  They should have been able to see it coming.  No matter what the actual conditions on the ground in Iraq, the McCain campaign will be calling for "success" and "victory" and will try to pin Obama with the label of "losing," as we said here several months ago.  TPM: 

McCain adviser Randy Scheunemann joined in: "Senator Obama seems to think losing a war will help him win an election."

Scheunemann then hammered Obama for voting against a war-funding bill last year that contained money for not only Iraq but also Afghanistan. "This is Senator Obama's judgment on display," Scheunemann said. "Defund our forces in Afghanistan and Iraq, in an effort to placate the left wing of the Democratic Party."
