If the crats make cutting and running their goal for the 2008 election, they will lose. No one will vote for defeat.

No, but he should be setting us up to win...

"Legislation" is not an end in itself.

God bless your nephew! Please tell him we love him with our whole heart, and our prayers are with him. Tell him we are so thankful for his service, and that we are honored to have him fighting to keep us safe and free.

Oh, man. I am going to go into political seclusion over the next two years until this non-communicative president is gone, gone, gone. He is an embarrasment to conservatives.

I guess that now he will respond to the democrat demands to send our troops to the Sudan to try to build some kind of "freedom and democracy" for those Sudanese. After all it was such a success in Haiti, Somalia and Iraq.

True, but he didn't believe them. The reality hadn't sunk in, he's surrounded by people who tell him mostly good news, etc.

Not even the Democrats thought they would take the Senate. The House was in play and not in such a big way. Plus, all those Governships and state legislatures.

It's one thing to know it's a possibility, its another thing to actually have it happen.

Just human nature, no need to condemn ...

I was so hoping I had misheard him.

He reached across the aisle with a Majority Rep Senate and House. Know what that got him? FEW conservatives promises kept to the electorate so that Dems could run as conservatives and win.

You are deluding yourself if you think they stop with Rummy.

The new Tone, bi-partisan appeal needs to be abandoned but apparently he's still clinging to it.

Maybe the Media needs to be exposed, I bet a whole lot of skeletons are in those closets. They would deserve it considering how high and mighty they believe themselves to be.

Where is McCain?

Stop this torture!

Isn't there a law against it?

[GW should have come out, made a statement accepting Rummy's resignation, congratulated the Dems on their win, and gone back to the Oval Office.]

He's committing political suicide. It began with the stupid wishy washiness over Hezbollah and Hamas that was perceived as rewarding the terrorists with a state and then with the replacment of Porter Goss and has been downhill ever since.

The people wanted their officials to fight for them, instead we saw them turn their backs to avoid conflict and nearly every turn. And he's got the wrong message- he thinks we want our officials to be even more dainty with the Democrats. All we really wanted was leadership and all we got was McCain driving the agenda, over and over.

They turned their backs on all the treason... they let Sandy Berger get off and he'll even get his security clearance back soon.

They didn't prosecute the leakers...

They didn't replace the clingons and they've paid dearly for it.

The congress just kept spending and spending...

Our officials went belly up on campaign finance

They went belly up on tax reform

They didn't make an issue of things like eminent domain- we had to do that ourselves.

They treated the press corp with kid gloves and let them have their way with throwing conservative reporters out. Instead of being testy with the press- which is hated by conservatives everywhere, they quailed and let the press set the agenda, which was frustrating to no end.

And the administration never did stop kissing up to the Hamas front group CAIR, never did distance themselves from it, instead giving them a forum and a say they should never have been granted.

The people were treated to news of terrorists getting piddling littlle sentences and enemies from the battlefield being released to fight again. The perception was it was a catch-and-release war, that even if the Democrats were surrender junkies, the Republicans were "surrender-junky lite."

Down here in FL, the people at the polls were grumbling the most about the the massive insurance bills we'd all just received before the election... and about the higher property assessments which had driven up taxes. And they weere blaming the party in power for it.

Bush sounds human and has cowboy'd up and made the necessary changes. Sounds like Rummy was shown the door and not resigned. He sounds off script and more relaxed. When you plasy tight you make mistakes. The Bi-partisan crap is just that crap. Americans love when people kick someone when they are down, masterful by Bush. That's it MSM gloat, we'll hang one on you in 2008

His comeback to the reporter about not knowing the outcome of the election was, 'well neither did you.'

OMG.
