Bush: War in Iraq 'Far from Over'

At Central Command headquarters in Florida, President Bush says the United States will be "relentless" in its pursuit of victory in Iraq. But he warns the war is "far from over" and that U.S. forces will face "the most desperate elements of a doomed regime" as they close in on Baghdad. Hear NPR's Bob Edwards and NPR's Don Gonyea.

You're most likely to find NPR's Don Gonyea on the road, in some battleground state looking for voters to sit with him at the local lunch spot, the VFW or union hall, at a campaign rally, or at their kitchen tables to tell him what's on their minds. Through countless such conversations over the course of the year, he gets a ground-level view of American elections. Gonyea is NPR's National Political Correspondent, a position he has held since 2010. His reports can be heard on all NPR News programs and at NPR.org. To hear his sound-rich stories is akin to riding in the passenger seat of his rental car, traveling through Iowa or South Carolina or Michigan or wherever, right along with him.
