Agreed, Don.
But could we have fought it in any way so as to have won it?

Agreed, Don. But could we have fought it in any way so as to have won it? Barry Goldwater thought so . . . "I could have ended the war in a month. I could have made North Vietnam look like a mud puddle." -Barry Goldwater |

That's the right approach. But McNamara and the whiz kids thought they could fight the war with statistics, so that, when they made the cost greater than the benefit for the enemy, the enemy would fold. War, like life, doesn't work like that.
