For Republicans: The election went just as planned
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Despite popular beliefs, the 2006 election was not a crushing defeat for the Republicans. The result was actually what the Republicans were hoping for.
For many voters, the Iraq War was the main issue during this election. The Democrats had focused their strategy around this. But for the Republicans, the Iraq War was merely a thing of the past. To them this election wasn't about the Iraqis. It was never about the Iraqis. Their goal is to consolidate their forces at home in time to fight the inevitable War on Christmas. Knowing that Democrats will bring the troops home for them, the Republicans knew their easiest way to gain victory was to feign defeat.
Sun Tzu's Art of War teaches that "where you're strong, you must feign weakness, where you're weak you must pretend to be strong." The Republicans have mastered that strategy regarding war. "Where you're defeated, you must feign victory, where you're victorious you must feign defeat." You must not let your enemies know your true position. So as far as the public should know; the Iraq War has been won, and the election has been lost.
