I mentioned to a friend when the deal was first struck. I wondered how long it would take before people began saying that the opposition underestimated Bush again. I'm wondering if the talk show and written publication pundits haven't been just as guilty of underestimating?
Probably. We all are guilty of those first visceral reactions to the moderates who undermine the party line. I'm still angry, and to be honest I couldn't see how they were going to dance around these holier than thou jerks. But I should keep my faith in the ones who will do everything they can to make these idiots pay for their actions. Bush is very good about pulling the carpet out from someone without making it appear as he is doing so.
