From tonight’s Situation Room:

Wolf Blitzer: Let me try to pinpoint your position. Senators Harry Reid, the majority leader; Russ Feingold of Wisconsin — they say cut off the funding, if necessary, to end this war. Senator Carl Levin, the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee (sic), on the other hand, doesn’t go that far. Where do you stand in terms of this debate among Democrats?
Sen. Obama : I am not yet at the point where I am prepared to say that I’m going to cut off funding, partly because I spend a lot of time in Iowa and Illinois, in small communities where every town hall meeting I have I meet with a mother whose son or daughter is in Iraq. And they are concerned not only about getting them home, but also concerned about getting them home safely and making sure they’ve got the night-vision goggles and the armor and so forth.
