While of course most of the focus is on how this report will play in the current US elections; with each party putting their own unique spin on the content... I have to wonder how it will affect Bush's closest Ally abroad in Iraq - Tony Blair. It was a tough fight for him to convince his party (which he really didn't succeed all that well in) to give him the needed backing for commiting British forces in Iraq; his selling point was the much lauded WMD capability of Saddam - now Blair's footing is even more precarious following this report.
