this is one of the happiest days of my 30 years in politics!!!!

Oh yes!! I SALUTE the President for his courage and faith to go out on the hustings the past few months, campaigning again and again for R candidates!

It was noted those candidates for whom President Bush stumped often did well.

It was also noted those candidates for whom UOx42 or Algore stumped, did not.

Hey, Tree, are you still considering a run in 2004?

Dick Morris was just on Fox, saying the following:

1. Selecting Mondale was the fatal flaw in the Dem strategy, making him the 'poster child' of the election (I wish he would stop saying that -- they are hanging Mondale out to dry, but all he did was follow orders);

2. Bush took a huge gamble by basically making the midterms a referendum on him. By campaigning so openly with candidates, he possibly could have been associated with the huge loss if it occurred (and, of course, Morris says he would have advised Bush against it, but thought it was brilliant now that it worked out); and

3. This midterm was the most successful for the party in power in history!!!! Bush has made history by orchestrating such a huge success!!!! (Sounds like Morris wants a job...)
