...the questions asked by the young lady to the Governor were more incisive and thoughtful than the totality of those I've seen flung at Ari Fleisher by the so-called pros in the WH corps over the last four weeks.

Jeb Bush's actions during that Florida recount circus were a remarkable display of honor, duty and unselfishness. His immediate recusal from involvement in any part of the contested legal process, his grace throughout the onslaught of slimy innuendos and partisan lies, his respect for the prerogatives of his officers both Pubbie and Rat (the AG who wimped out of defending the State against the despots in the Florida Supreme Court), and his measured steps to repair the damage left after the a-hole Gore lawyers and operatives left the state and went back to their dungeons - he's proven to me that he's a damn good man of integrity and duty. Like big bro. Both Bush's conducted themselves with spectacular maturity and wisdom during that mess. He's going to blitzkrieg Reno ... in fact, I predict she'll withdraw from the race citing medical reasons.

Arne, BTTT to your entire insightful post. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts here.

BTW, I too have predicted Reno will withdraw at the 11th hour, less than a week before the election, citing medical reasons. If she doesn't, I predict the biggest landslide in history for a FL gov race, with Gov. Bush making history twice -- for the largest margin of victory, and, as the first GOP FL gov to ever win a 2nd term. So far, you are the only one who has agreed with me that she will withdraw at the last moment. I think the onslaught of so much negative publicity for the Dems for such a huge loss in FL will be too much for her, and she will seek to deny Gov. Bush that history-making record of the largest win. We'll see. But, I bet you and I are right on the money with this.

WH Press Conference:

Ari: Yes Autumn?

Autumn: Have you looked into my inquiry yesterday about the three temporary Executive Orders issued by President Clinton that will take permanent force of law should no action be taken by midnight Saturday?

Ari: Yes, we are grateful that these executive orders -one of which designated the entirety of Texas as a Wildlife Refuge banning any economic development or human habitation - were able to be found, addressed and reversed before they became law. Thank you for your perceptive heads up, Autumn. Helen?

Helen: Why won't the President tell us about Enron and all the Big Oil of his? He's hiding something from the American people, is it payoffs to his Big Oil? Why won't he tell us the truth?

[summer]

LOL....Helen, here's what truly happened:
