Errrr, Bush isn't a Senator. What did he have to do with the moronic 7? All those RINOs hate Bush.
Bush spent zero capital on his nominees. Why? Why is it that Bush worked all night to get his welfare schemes passed through Congress but wouldn't lift a finger for his nominees? Again, this is the divide and conquer strategy of the Republicans that people like you fall for. Bush nominates and saves his face with conservatives. The Senate blocks and Bush does nothing like a French general. Some people caught this bluff a long time ago and outed Bush for what he is.
