Both Newt Gingrich and Dick Morris have stated that had Bush removed Rumsfeld a month before the election, the Republicans would have kept control of the Senate and saved at least 5 GOP seats.

B.S. Cutting Rusfeld would have been played as a sign of weakness and doubt by the media. It would not have helped at all.

B.S. Cutting Rumsfeld would have been played as a sign of weakness and doubt by the media. It would not have helped at all.


But cutting Rumsfield immediately after the election is a sign of strength?

There is no question the GOP would control the Senate if he had made the decision before the election. Can we pin this one on Karl Rove?
