What the Dems don't understand, what they will never understand, is that President Bush didn't get to be governor and then President by lacking political skill. George Bush out-foxed Tommy Daschle with the Homeland Security Bill before the 2002 elections to lead the Republicans back into the Senate majority.

And now he's out-foxed the Dems again. They underestimate this President at their own peril.

No, that can't be true, because this president, despite having a Yale undergrad, and a Harvard MBA, who was a jet fighter pilot, and who was twice elected governor to one of the most populous states in the US, is stupid. He couldn't possibly out fox super geniuses like Tiny Tom and "Human Oil Slick" McAwful.

Did I miss something? Isn't W a coke-head, National Guard runaway, stupid, drunken, fraternity mentality, syntax deprived nitwit? He's not? Oh. That's why he keep cleaning their clocks.

Absolutely right. The Dems won't win by continuing to "misunderestimate" Dubya.

As for Karl Rove, no doubt he's good--but Dubya has to make the final decisions on who,how, when, and why.

It's always amazing to see the comments by leftists who have only heard the party line--after they meet Bush. Without exception they say the same thing: They've misunderestimated the man.
