Consider the source. That's all I can say. Not all voices are equal, and I'd hope that you'd discount the pollyannaish rantings of Paul Begala, James Carville, and Dick Gephardt as a matter of course.

Absolutely. Now that I reread your post, I may have misunderstood you. I think Novak is whacked. And the Begala, Carville, Gephardts and their ilk always predict a huge takeover.

What I THOUGHT you were saying is that those types had never predicted their own fantastic takeover since the beginning of this administration. Did I misunderstand?
