Are Democrats Afraid of a Myth?

The Democratic majority in Congress is heading toward an Iraq War showdown with George W. Bush over his $105 billlion funding request. The Democratic leaders want a compromise plan that would phase out a U.S. combat role in Iraq by mid-2008, while Bush is demanding that he be given the money without "strings." Are Democrats still afraid that Bush can retaliate by blaming them for undermining the troops? Or are American voters so fed up with Bush's war bungling that they'd be angrier if Congress gave Bush another blank check? March 12, 2007
