Pretty apt analysis, I'd say, though don't know about anything south or west of maybe Pennsylvania for Rudy.

I see in the Cubs/National game that President Dubya is there taking the ballgame in. That's probably safer for the country than if conferring with his Atty. Gen. and DHS Sec.

I think Mitt could find some new life. I also am curently wondering about (and praying for and suggesting others do the same) Thompson's health.

I believe Thompson’s doctor made a statement about his cancer. I will say this—I have a neighbor down the street who has been “dying” of cancer for all 12 of the years that I’ve lived in the neighborhood. He’s just fine. He goes walking and drives around. Can’t tell that he has it. It may be the same type of cancer that Thompson has, for all I know.
