Is Hillary happy that some of the other potential candidates may have shot themselves in the foot, or in somes cases, like Kerry and Dean, in both feet, in both arms, in both legs, and in both butt cheeks?
heh, heh...loved that last line. :) Well, I hope this is another one of Bush's ropa dopes. Either way the dem/dim/lib/lefties have shown their butts for years now and maybe now the public is tired of being "mooned" by the dingbats. We'll see.
Maybe it's the old poker player in him holding his cards close to his vst until now. I hope so! I remember this.............

One final note on George W. Bushs management style and his Harvard Business School background does not derive from the classroom, per se. One feature of life there is that a subculture of poker players exists. Poker is a natural fit with the inclinations, talents, and skills of many future entrepreneurs. A close reading of the odds, combined with the ability to out-psych the opposition, leads to capital accumulation in many fields, aside from the poker table.
By reputation, the President was a very avid and skillful poker player when he was an MBA student. One of the secrets of a successful poker player is to encourage your opponent to bet a lot of chips on a losing hand. This is a pattern of behavior one sees repeatedly in George W. Bushs political career. He is not one to loudly proclaim his strengths at the beginning of a campaign. Instead, he bides his time, does not respond forcefully, at least at first, to critiques from his enemies, no matter how loud and annoying they get. If anything, this apparent passivity only goads them into making their case more emphatically.
