Maybe I've had one too many margeratias, but I can't decide who the author is. Great essay.

Bush has got the Democrats so snookered that they can't even touch a ball, much less bank one.

It was a hoot watching W route the Democrats in Texas. When he first got elected there were no Republicans holding statewide office. When he resigned to become President six years later, all of the state wide elected and appointed officials were Republican.

Hide and watch. This is gonna be a wild ride.

He was great, the speech was great, and thank GOD that he is president ! The wilder the ride, the better ! : - )

I agree about the almost unreal savvy of GW. As another Texan who watched him the last 8 years I would tell people what an amazing job he did in completely silencing and co-opting the Democrats in this state.

Alot of people laughed at me - and him. They could not believe that the man the saw on TV was such a master of the political. He makes Bill Clinton look like nothing more than what he is - an immature party boy with powerful friends who used him for all he was worth.

Keep watching - the Democrats are just getting up to speed as GW spins 'em!

I knew one paragraph into this that it was John's. Sir, you are blessed with special insight. I am SO glad you are on 'our' side.
