I must say...if Rumsfeld was going to go anyway, why couldn't it have been BEFORE the election? That might've made a difference.

I doubt it. We didn’t lose this because of Rumsfeld.

If he’d stayed on he’d be spending all his time in front of every committee the Dims could think of. Rummy is smart, with the Dims in control they’d be hounding him 24/7 and he wouldn’t be able to do his job. Unfortunately this was a good choice for him.

Too bad, what a shame. The next 2 years will be hell.
