All of which means that the GOP is facing a reckoning within itself that MUST be acknowledged and FIXED before 2008. Hillary! is surely watching the proceedings with amusement.

And people have the audacity to ponder Hillary's reasons for remaining so quiet on this issue. Feh!!!!!!!! Thanks LC!!

I have some VERY conservative co-workers who are now wondering why they should support the GOP if they will so easily ignore state's rights, disregard all the OTHER important issues they should be dealing with (and which it is their JOB to deal with) just for this one issue in Florida.

Think about it...we are in a war, Social Security will likely go bust along with Medicare, taxes are a mess, we desperately need tort reform and energy-policy reform, and yet the entire federal government + one state government are working round the clock for one woman in PVS who wanted to die in this circumstance.

And all for the bleating of a few activists.

One of my buddies, watching this unfold last week, summed it up thus:"WOW! Good thing nothing else is going on, or they wouldn't have had the time to put to this!". This was spoken in the context of a maintinence type who hasn't got the parts he needs to fix our squadron aircraft before we deploy this Summer.

She's nowhere near "the Smartest Woman In The World", but she's no moron, either.

Remember that old saying about "Better to remain silent and be thought the fool than to speak up and remove all doubt"?

She got to watch a LOT of Republicans remove some doubt this weekend.

The negative political fallout for the GOP is going to be huge. I know that it's the norm for the party in the WH to lose congressional seats in an off-year but I'm afraid that the GOP is going to lose a LOT of seats in '06.

Fools rush in... :(
