Gen Downing on MSNBC is saying that Clarke doesn't know the whole picture and doesn't know what happened to lead up to Iraq
Saxby Chambliss blasting Clarke on FNC right now, saying what he said today is 180 out of phase from what he was telling members of the Senate and House in closed door sessions.
The President has taken a small hit the last two days. Rasmussen had the President up 48 to 45 on the 3 day rolling poll from Friday thru Sunday. Today's results from Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday have Bush down 47 to 44. All within the margin of error still, and still statistically a tie, but we will find out tomorrow at noon, how this will start to play out probably Friday, when the poll is post 60 minutes, and includes the data from Yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
Bush needs to go back on the offensive personally. The surrogates attacking Clarke aren't stopping the damage, short term though it may be.
