"I think that the surge has succeeded in ways that nobody
anticipated," Obama told O'Reilly of President Bush's decision last
year to increase troop levels. "It's succeeded beyond our wildest
dreams."
He said he would "never take military action off the table" in the
case of Iran. "It is unacceptable for Iran to possess a nuclear
weapon; it would be a game changer," Obama said.
He can't publicly rule out any option, nor could Bush. Privately
there might be a different idea but it's kind of silly to expect him
to say anything else. It would be reckless to publicly say "I'd
never use military action."

"It's succeeded beyond our wildest dreams."
that's the quote which will be used by the opposition to show he
demonstrated poor judgement when he said the surge wasn't going to work
what does he mean by "succeeded" ? and "beyond wildest dreams"
While he has explained the "success" of the surge in context ... I
think the above statement could come back to bite him.
