The only reason these unrealistic realist solutions are being taken seriously is because the Democratic election victory has been widely being interpreted as the American public's acceptance of defeat in Iraq. But the Democrats, and those who voted for them, didn't really want to admit, openly, that they were for defeat. They wanted to come up with a way to paper over an American retreat to make it look like an orderly "redeployment." And if you're looking for a ruse like that, well, the man with the most experience is uber-"realist" Henry Kissinger.
