Really.
Look who he has around him. Rumsfeld, Cheney, Bolton, Snow, Rice, Gen Pace and so on.
GWB certainly is a man that is smart enough to hire great people and is not afraid or threatened at all to be overshadowed by them.
In fact, I suspect that it thrills him to see such success.
Can we imagine a Clinton or Gore or Kerry being like that. I think not.
Heck no, they always hired people who were lesser because to do that would make them the smartest person in the room, even both of them are "Bubbas" big time...no offence to "real" bubbas!
GW is so self-confident that he doesn't have to try to make himself look good...he just IS good!
Well, we know about Clinton. Albright, Reno, et al do not come close.
