Given the lost election, exactly why are liberals on the attack with such vehemence against the president? You'd think they'd pause to catch their breath and consider their errors.
1. Their socialist agenda is threatened by the success of elections in Iraq. The ba'athists were socialists; Saddam was a socialist; and Ramsey Clark, a socialist, taking up Saddam's banner, is evidence that they are in terror of another major defeat for world socialism.
2. Jeb Bush -- They fear that Bush name and MUST besmirch it before George leaves office. It doesn't matter when Jeb will run for president -- 2008, 12, 16 -- but they know he will run. Expect some hefty attacks on Florida these next few years.
3. George Bush is still young. While a young Clinton is content to fritter his time away, Pres. Bush is a doer. I've no idea which direction W will go, but it worries the dems. In their minds, better to wound him if they can.
4. The 2006 the Senate is up for a filibuster proof majority on the part of the Republicans. Despite having just proven that a 2 year long campaign didn't do a bit of good, the dems apparently are going to keep snorting political methadrine and downing campaign no-doze. This will backfire (again) and is good for the pubbies....America is tired of non-stop campaigning. They will punish anyone who makes them put up with this crap much longer.
