Snow has made a difference.
I would say that Snow brings a "coolness" to the PS job that has been heretofore lacking.
>>Snow has made a difference.<<
I have to admit I underestimated him - he's more in his element in Washington than he was on a message board - the messages from the White House are clearer and have the right tone.
I was wondering about that, too. It seems that Bush is more out front and confident than he was before Tony Snow arrived.
I thought Condi would be great, but she has turned out to be yet another State Dept. creature. I realize that I don't know what's going on behind the scenes, and it's highly possible that she's making all sorts of big changes, etc., etc., but she hasn't seemed a lot different from Powell. I've been very disappointed in her Latin American non-policy, since the region is important to us and it doesn't seem to me that she's treating it that way. And she has been very "Powellish" on the ME.
"Snow has made a difference."
He's been making a good example of Helen, even cutting her off the other day for "hectoring" him.
As has John Bolton, Both are good men in the right place at the right time.
