This has to be one of the savviest political poker maneuvers I have seen. Misunderestimated by the democrats again ? This time he did it so well, it went over the heads of many conservatives.

It is strategically brilliant. As far as the 'angry, raging conservative street (think arab street :)), they will be quite happy after seeing the first several votes. Of course, some are just miserable malcontented whiners who live to complain. For them, no person living would do.

George Bush could spit up his lunch and you would call it a brilliant strategic maneuver. Bush failed to consult his base. Picked his lawyer and ducked a real fight.
