As the original post admitted, none of the quoted administration figures, with the possible exception of cheney, are really representative of "the white house." That would be Bush, Rice, or Fleischer.
So the gotcha was pretty watered down to begin with.
Seems to me that most administration figures (not just "The White House") said, in the quotes above and elsewhere, it will probably be short but it _could_ be long (eg Rumsfeld - "a relatively reasonably predictable length of time"). So far it seems as though they were right.
