My first thought. Him or Colin Powell, but I think Powell and the WH aren't on best of terms. However, Powell doctrine of overwhelming force contrasts nicely with Rummy's failed doctrine of underwhelming force.

Why now? Why not last week? Would it have made a difference in the Senate races?I doubt it. My guess is that this is a "circle the wagons" move to shore up the resources, and rob the Democrats of a punching bag.

Neither the President nor the new Sec Def will have any authority over the JCS: they'll just go straight to the Dems to get what they want whenever they want it.
Bush might as well resign also.

The Unknown
As we know, There are known knowns. There are things we know we know. We also know There are known unknowns. That is to say We know there are some things We do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns, The ones we don't know We don't know. —Feb. 12, 2002, Department of Defense news briefing

Well, whatever stink there has been that is tied to him will be diffused. It could help the war effort if Democrats are in charge of Congress.
To: relee
A Democrat Senator I hope!Since that may be the only way we keep the Senate...I hope you are right. You didn't mean Kerry did you?? :0)
