But questions are being raised about how far some Democrat proposals could go. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid admitted Tuesday his plan could still leave “tens of thousands of troops in Iraq.”

Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid: “As President Bush said, and I will quote him, ’We’ll leave that to the military commanders.’ All I know is we will draw down significantly from the 160,000 troops who are there. Whether it’s going to be 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, I really don’t know. There are numbers that I have heard. We don’t know. All I know is Levin-Reed will drastically change the policy in Iraq.”

A recent USA Today/Gallup poll shows more than seven out of 10 Americans want all U.S. troops out by April of next year. Sixty-two percent say sending troops to Iraq was a mistake — the highest percentage so far.
