I am assuming Hillary will draw down forces in Iraq, the Democrats are going to ride that ticket and I honestly think we goto draw down as well but keep a strong presence in Iraq.
So...
In effect I think the military will get bigger with her leading the country.

She will probably draw down forces from Iraq dependent on what is going on at the time and assuming she becomes President (which is certainly not a done deal)...but she has stated that a very signifcant force will remain in Iraq for years to come...and I personally suspect that force will be between 50 and 100 thousand and will remain there for decades.
The military will definitely increase under her because the end force has already been increased by congress...but there will be some leave from those that are currently serving if she becomes Commander in Chief.
