The same Bob Dole who stopped the Assault Weapons ban repeal by unanimous consent in the Senate, and prevent a filibuster of the Brady Bill again by a unanimous consent declaration (ie "without objection"), at O'Dark thirty when only a very few actual Senators were present? That Bob Dole? No thanks. We need leadership with a spine and that has read and understands the Constitution, not another invertebrate.

Besides, he's got a great gig, pushing Viagra, and thus doesn't need the work anyway.

Since Dole can't introduce any legislation, those things you mentioned would not come into play in his stint as Speaker, and would only be until after the 2006 elections.

Using my senario, is there anyone you would be willing to use , or could think of, to put in Dole's place to achieve the same results of trying to take away the the Dem's "Repubs are ALL corrupt, and it's time for a change" mantra ??

And thank you for your reply to my post.
