Honest question. Why do so many people assume Putin couldn't retain power if Russia retrenches back to Crimea? I've seen nothing in the last 20 years which suggests his power is that brittle. In fact I've seen quite the opposite.
I suppose this could be like the Hemingway (mis) quote: "How do you lose power? Two ways, Gradually and then suddenly" but I don't see any evidence of "gradually". If anything his hold on power looks stronger.
People keep claiming he couldn't retain power but rarely support the claim.

In 1938 Neville Chamberlain declared "Peace in our time", Superman first appeared in Action Comics, Seabiscuit beat War Admiral ....... and C.a.l last won the Rose Bowl.
