Is Ridge scared like Tenat(sp ?)?
On TM, we always think on the dark side first, don't we?! Maybe the AP story is not true (awhile back, Rummy was supposed to resign also). Or maybe Tom Ridge is looking for an affirmation from GWB that GWB will want Ridge to remain in his post in a new term, especially with all the talk of a new intelligence czar and all. Or maybe the intense pressure has indeed taken its toll on Tom and/or he wants to cover his bread and butter making arse with some carrer offers pending the November elections results.
