When the anti-war (at all costs) movement and Saddam have lost the entire WaPo editorial board, including Mary McGrory (“I’m Persuaded“), your time is limited.
When you have lost the NY Times editorial board, it is time for Hussein to start thinking about exile. Or, as Matt Yglesias puts it:

GK
Exactly right. I actually still think Saddam has a window of opportunity before Blix’s next report, if he honestly just let it all open, admitted his lies and repented. If we can manage to get hell to freeze over as well, then perhaps war could be unnecessary…
