Exactly. The Kerry camp's implication is that Bush doesn't really intend to leave any time soon, as evidenced by such things as building military bases there. But regardless of that, the big difference is attitude. Bush thinks that this was the right thing to do and will proceed with this mindset. Kerry does not (or I hope he doesn't) and will proceed with that attitude. Unfortunately, the mess is still there, so you still have to clean up regardless of the intentions.
Personally, I think that Kerry is not hard enough on Bush about the war, and he can't be, since he authorized the use of power there. If I had my druthers, I'd rather there be someone in office who had a track record of being against this from the beginning. But I wouldn't even expect his administration to do anything different in the short term.
