A good overview of the diversity of official Democratic opposition to the Iraq war. (They all want America to lose - or at least to ensure that whatever Bush proposes, doesn't happen - they're just divided over how to bring it about. There is no hint that any prominent Democrat actually wants to seek victory.) The sources are varied and seem comprehensive; the writer does not inject himself into the story in any obvious way. Worth reading.
