The problem is that Republicans have the image of being war and military friendly, and Democrats have the image of being more domestically focused and dovish. So with support for an invasion fairly high, and in a time of almost over-patriotism (although that is fading), they can't risk being seen as anti-war. So Dems have to seem overly friendly to the idea of war, even if much of their base isn't so keen on the idea. Republicans, on the other hand, have been asking the valid question on this debate because they have the political room to do so.
