From a Times of London article headlined, “Al-Qaeda is Driven From Mosul Bastion After Bloody Last Stand”:

“The murder toll is dropping, the insurgents are on the run. Our correspondent is on the front line as the Iraqi army takes control.”

The situation in Iraq is improving so rapidly, the Democrats may be robbed of their opportunity to surrender and retreat with the increased majorities they’re counting on picking up this Fall. Boy, would that be a bitter pill for them to swallow. Pelosi, Reid, Murtha, et. al. have been counting the hours until they reenact that last helicopter off the embassy in Saigon thing.
