Done!! Brilliant stragery by Bush Admin. Owens, etc., would've gotten shotdown. Although the Admin is pissing off the base by not being overt about sticking it to Dems, its plan was to follow a winning game plan; a stealth candidate. Following the Roberts game-plan, Bush has set the debate in the public arena. Although nominees not answering questions isn't something anybody in the public doesn't like, I do not believe the environment is setup for a down vote. There was a opportunity to frame this Republican Party and it's movement into every aspect of our private lives with the Schiavo event but they've failed on hammering home point in a manner that paints narrative that the public can grasp.
What of the conservative complaints??
Hogwash. There isn't a thing in this administration that isn't scripted, planned and coordinated. How is it that people acknowledge the daily talking points faxes but don't believe this reaction isn't coerced?????
When has the administration every altered it's plan before implementation in the face of opposition and/or disagreement?????
NEVER NEVER NEVER!!!! Why start now??
