Bella Pelosi ???? - Very Good!
I hadn't realized that she was boasting about stopping SS reform but if so, she has misunderestimated Bush once again. She's another politician who thinks in the moment and believes that short term town hall meeting tactics can trump a longer term strategy based on task forces and committees who burrow away quietly for months on the issues before producing a series of SS reports that are soundly based and can be debated in an informed manner.
I think that's the stage we're at right now. Once Bush revives the issue he will be able to recite chapter and verse about the true nature of the problem and give the real pros and cons of alternative solutions. With such ammo, he can blow little Bella's "town hall meeting" amateur hour attacks right out of the water.

Be kind of fun if Hillary Rodham was nominated by Bush and was relentlessly interrogated on her views and previous actions....

....but that kind of questioning would require Republican Senators who actually had some backbone.
