It depends on how you define victory. If victory is a stable, basically uncorrupt, representative, non-repressive government, then we're talking about a sea change. Who knows how long that will take.

This idea about victory and defeat is one of the things I find most frustrating about McCain. He never defines victory, yet postures a lot about it. It is only a feeling but it seems to me that in the Iraq War McCain is reliving the unfinished business of Vietnam 40 years too late.
