Lott: We Need Progress Soon

Senate Minority Whip Trent Lott (R-Mississippi) warned the Bush Administration today they have until the Fall to show signs of progress in Iraq before Republicans begin to turn.

My money is on the following result;

Petreaus comes back from Iraq in September, tells Congress "Progress is being made slowly, we need more time" even though nothing has changed in reality and the Republicans once again go on their "Let's give it more time, you want us to win dont you?" bandwagon and get creamed in 2008.

Somehow, I cannot fathom the GOP breaking from their prophet in the White House until he's back in Crawford...permanently.
