"I've been very unhappy with the current administration from the start," she says. "I support the troosp, but I feel that this war was illegtiimate." Neither Galyon, a Democrat, nor Conner, an independent, knows how to end the conflict, but both express hope that someone will come up with an acceptable exit strategy--fast. | | More information |
