Re: We're about 20 miles (+ or -) from the Baghdad city limits . . .
It might take as long as a month or two to sweep through. Of course this will be done pretty much the same way the initial invasion was handled, with a hard drive directly through the city to main military targets (likely at night when there would be less traffic) and a back-press to support fellow troops and surround cells of resistence.
A tough tactic, as we would be dividing our forces, but I think the most likely. It's also a very doable tactic, through our support chain and overwhelming artillary and air superiority -- as well as its overwhelming accuracy.
Statistics won't hold us to that 2 to 10 month window, Tom, but the facts of the war just might.
