Reed definitely wants the job. Newt is on the WH sh!t list for attacking Powell-- and by proxy, Bush himself-- over the diplomatic failures. The odd thing to me is that RNC co-chair Ann Wagner was passed over. I believe she is the current MO-GOP chair and MO's GOP is in pretty good shape.

I'm not so sure, if newt was really talking out of school to be honest with you. The fact is, he is on the defense policy board, and works closely with Rumsfeld on policy.

Yes, she is; and yes, the Republican party here (MO) is doing OK.
However, we have a Democratic governor who is up for re-election in '04, and both houses of the state legislature have "slight" Republican majorities. We need Ann to help us retain the legislature and regain the Governor's mansion.

Newt is not a fit for that job.I didn't see him attacking Powell, I saw him attacking the entrenched appeasment-minded bureaucracy that needs to be weeded out.The liberal press put the Defense versus State Dept. spin to it.
