The Vietnam War crossed a couple of Republican and a couple of Democratic administrations. I don't think any of them did a particularly good job, because they didn't allow the military to execute the war. Targets were chosen for political reasons, rather than strategic. We could (would) have won that war had the professional military been allowed to wage it.

I think that President Bush has done a reasonably good job of allowing that to happen in this war -- although I'm still not convinced we should have fought it at all.

I agree, in the long run, that it is the person, not the party that makes the difference.
