(CBS News) WASHINGTON "President Bush will deliver his new plan for the war in Iraq Wednesday [January 10, 2007] night to an American public eager for change, but he may face a showdown in Washington over his intentions.
"CBS News senior White House correspondent Bill Plante reports sources say Mr. Bush will call for a surge of troops to Iraq that may total 20,000 additional forces over time. The address is scheduled for 9 p.m. EST."
...
"Some military officials, familiar with the discussions, say Mr. Bush at first could send 8,000 to 10,000 new troops to Baghdad, and possibly Anbar Province, and leave himself the option of adding more later if security does not improve."
