politically speaking, it is. our party doesn't know how to run a political operation - a war room, a media operations room, talking points, etc. so what do you expect? if we had the political and communications team Reagan had in there, we would be in much better shape. But we don't.
Alot of freepers laughed when Bernard Kerik went down over the nanny tax issue - plus alot of innuendo used against him: his affair with Judith Regan, his stock options, who installed a kitchen in his house, etc. But many freepers accepted that because they saw it as a way to hurt Giuliani. I warned many people this approach would be used again against a nominee that "we like" - and here it is.
So who do we put up next for UN ambassador? as we did with Homeland Security, some empty suit no name "nice guy" who will pass the confirmation process.
SO VERY SORRY TO SAY YER CORRECT
"a war room, a media operations room, talking points, etc. so what do you expect?"
There was absolutely nothing from the repubs or Bush like that supporting Bolton. Karl "the Genius" Rove probably to busy trying to make that 60 city SS tour look not like the joke it was destined to be.
