Bush has 4 more years in a second term to start pushing some real reforms

Do you think he'll really do that? I don't think it's out of the question, but how do you judge future results, except by past performance?

Certainly true, but remember how Clinton decided to issue all those pardons at the last minute because it was the end of his second term and no consequences could come of it politically?

I think Dubya may be waiting for bigger plans until we have a stronger majority.

Maybe not, in which case, he is a disappointment for blowing an incredible opportunity not open to the GOP in almost a century. And that would be very disappointing.
