1992 Election following Invasion of Iraq in Desert Storm

This has been an idea that won't get out of my head since my IR professor brought up a bit of AH in lecture Tuesday (a long story), enough so that I may do a mini 1991-2012/13 TL.

Basically, if after Kuwait was liberated, what effect on Bush's popularity would it have if the coalition continued. Granted, it's pretty obvious if they get bogged down, but what if Saddam is killed in an airstrike (not necessarily on purpose) while fleeing Baghdad, thus ensuring the war is still over quickly.

Remind me when Saddam was captured in the OTL occupation? It was not going to be pretty any occupation. In 1991, Bush the Elder knew that and resisted such calls; for a reason.

Or the number two could surrender if Saddam was killed in such a freak way.
