The Dems want to pander to their base without taking on the responsibility to actually do anything, because then they would be held responsible if their policy failed. If they had balls they'd cut off funding for the troops and end the war this minute. But they don't. They'll take their irresponsibility only so far. They want Bush to fail, no matter whether it's bad for the country or not, so long as they can profit from it politically. If they actually took a stand on something they'd be taking a risk that they wouldn't be able to get political benefits.
