" An aide to Mr. Daschle said his office received an increased volume of phone calls after his criticisms last week but did not know whether the callers supported or opposed his stance."
Well, DUH, let's see, i would say with Bushs' approval rating, that they were against YOU Daschle!!!!! To the aide; why do you not know if they were for or against, didn't you answer the damn phone?
Oh yeah, right...like the aide didn't take down the info? Sure....sounds to me like they didn't want to LET OUT the number of comments made against his stance. The dolt is going to do a better job getting us back the Senate than we could have ever hoped for...*grins*
