A winter of GOP discontent
As with anything commentators say, you need to take it with a grain of salt. Chuck Todd argues that the 2008 election depends on Bush and Iraq. We know what Bush won't do to help the situation, namely troop withdrawl, but we don't know what he will do other than increase American troop presence. Perhaps unfairly, the Democrats in congress may face some criticism if the situation in Baghdad doesn't improve. I guess it's the price you have to pay when re-taking the majority in both houses.

I think part of the reason why the democrats are the majority in the house is because the people were unhappy with the republicans and their role in Iraq. If Bush tries to get Democrats to "share" some of the blame in terms of Iraq, it would appear as though Bush was trying to make the Democrats vulnerable and we read an article about just how vulnerable Congress is.
