"Who do you think will be the new leader of the GOP?"

For the next two years it will still be Bush and Rove. The question is will they have learned anything by this debacle. I do look for a struggle at the grass roots level for the direction of the party. Hopefully, a conservative will emerge. Right now I am putting my money on the resurrection of Newt. He has shown he knows how to beat the left without becoming compromised in the process.

The new leaders on the Republican side of the isle will be more conservative. Congress will learn from this even if Bush doesn't. They have to run again. He doesn't.

Whenever there is a big loss by either party, the party moves back to its base. Republicans move right. Democrats move left.

The big question now is can the base overcome the party establishment and nominate a conservative in 08. If not we'll have a Democrat president and both houses of congress.

You did hear about his little secretary he was having an affair with didn't you, while he was in congress?

Well anyway I don't know about bringing him back. I am hoping for a combat veteran, pro-life, and anti-gay.
