Understatement of the day!
multi-tasking right now....
Dittoes, dittoes and more dittoes for this piece by Hugh Hewitt and the first two comments on this thread.
Since Karen Hughes departed, this Administration has been abysmal at PR and communications, managing the message, making sure the good guys understand the details, etc. etc. And W has been pretty much of a failure in his speeches to the American people at least in the past two years.
It gives one pause to think about what the country really needs and who might be the best candidate -- on the leadership front, the communicator front, the visionary -- for 2008. It's sure not another W, I'm sorry to admit.
I know it drives the current administration (and apparently Gerry Ford) crazy, but you always have to ask "What would Reagan do (or have done)?" He sure would have gotten the communications and PR strategies right.
JMHO.
