I think the reason Obama hasn't pulled out earlier is fear of "cutting and running" rhetoric from the GOP. Generally, the Dem's always overcompensate for their perceived weakness on national security, even if it means soldiers' lives are sacrificed for politics.

That said, a GOP victory could ultimately entail yet another NeoCon clusterf*ck and lots more death and destruction (in Iran, for example).
