This is why Bush should have put his foot down firmly on Rice's testimony. She cannot possibly win because the leftists are going to put an impossible burden upon her. In effect, they are going to claim she should have focused primarily on possible Al Qaeda attacks upon the country when no one, not even Clarke or Clinton (and these two were in charge when the terrorists hit us in the first place) focused on home attacks. The focus was always abroad. But the leftists are going to hang Rice with the responsibility for having failed to bring the focus home. And the leftist media is going to run gleefully with the story for weeks. Bush is about to take a huge hit.

I don't think Rice has a chance; but if I am wrong and she manages to pull this off, the GOP will owe her a debt that will be impossible to pay, but that it should try to pay nevertheless.
