There is only one issue in this election that will matter five or ten years from now, and that's the War on Terror.

And the success of the War on Terror now teeters on the fulcrum of this election.

If control of the House passes into Democratic hands, there are enough withdraw-on-a-timetable Democrats in positions of prominence that it will not only seem to be a victory for our enemies, it will be one. Orson Scott Card/The Only Issue This Election Day/excerpt

OSC seems to be making an undefended statement here: "If we withdraw on a timetable, our enemies will have won." This is his central thesis, and he explains his reasoning in the rest of the essay. I won't address that point until he starts explaining his reasoning, later on.
