...President won't budge for now on Iraq. And the Democrats won't be able to summon the 67 votes necessary to pass a timetable for withdrawal. Even the old bull Republicans who have "abandoned" the President aren't prepared to vote with the Democrats just yet. The most interesting vote in the next few weeks will be on a bipartisan amendment, sponsored by Democrat Ken Salazar of Colorado and Republican Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, that would enshrine the findings of the Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group as national policy.
