I was amazed today when Biden refused to take George's bait on "This Week", refraining from attacking or even distancing himself from Dean. George even went so far as to remind Biden that he has been critical of Dean in the past, and still Joe would not go there.

George opened by citing differences between leaders of the party regarding Iraq, and Joe reframed this brillantly, stating that there is a difference of opinion by leading democrats as to what inning we are in. That some have so little faith in the Bush's ability to make needed changes that they feel game is already over. He stated that he wasn't one of those, but certainly left the impression that this is a realistic stance to take. What's more, by framing it this way he highlighted that those who feel the game is over do so because of Bush, ie... not because "America" is somehow a loser.

This is interesting folks, sorry for my short diary. This Week dug up this old interview from a Texas channel regarding the Supreme Court, and why it is not more "conservative". This is a chance to see what Roberts thinks. They are talking about abortion now. Robert's said that Roe V Wade could fall depending on future appointments.

Be sure to tune in when you can.

Sorry for the quick diary, but I wanted people to get a chance to watch for themselves. Washington Week was showing pictures of Hackett campainging, and the script underneith said "political fall-out". They mentioned falling polls on Iraq and seemed to link that with what happened in Ihio.

These guys seem to think that the Iraq issue played a big part here, unlike the DCCC.

Pat Buchanon has some interesting observations about recent events in Iraq that got barely a mention in the MSM:

Is America preparing to pull out without victory?....So it would seem. For it is difficult to draw any other conclusion from the just-completed Rumsfield mission. Standing beside our defence secretary in Baghdad, Prime Minister Ibrahim al Jaffari called for the speedy withdrawl of U.S. forces. The top U.S. commander, Gen George Casey, also standing beside Rumsfield said "fairly substantial" withdrawls of...U.S. troops in Iraq could begin by spring. Read More

Jean Schmdt is on Hardball now with David Gregory. She came on with her mouth closed & guys, she looked like a witch. She has got wicked frown lines around her mouth, I mean you could plant corn in those rows. The effect of this? She appears to be frowning when her face is at rest.

Gregory doing a good job hammering her. He keeps asking her why Hackett doesn't get creds for being in the war, she keeps replying that voters in her district love Bush, so they don't like Hackett.

Hackett sure wins on the emotional scale. You got the real John Wayne vs The Wicked Witch of the North. I can see why it's not 70-30 anymore.

Sorry I rattled on so long, but I wasn't going for a scoop anyway. Anyone else see the show and care to comment?

At the end of Hardball, Cris announced that Hackett would be on tommorow. He said "You have to check this guy out". He talked about Hackett taking Bush on and calling him a "Chicken hawk", and the fact that he will go back to Iraq if not elected. Cris seemed pretty pumped about this, and I sure am. Hackett is the kind of guy I want to see, a Dean kind of guys who tell the unvarnished truth.

Should be a great show.

Just how close was Bush to Gannon ?

Ok guys, this is total fantasy that my college buddy and I got off onto while totally hammered, but here goes.

Remember those rumors floating around the net during the AWOL flap, that Bush had a taste for manflesh himself? Wasn't there some claims that he indulged a bit during his heavy hitting coke days?

Well, what if Gannon's real "Patron" in the WH was GW himself? Maybe that's how Gannon gained entry to inner halls of power (he,he). Read More
