"A Bush aide, briefing reporters on the condition of anonymity, was more explicit, saying that the individual accounts would do nothing to solve the system's long-term financial problems."

"That candid analysis, although widely shared by economists, distressed some Republicans."

"'Oh, my God,' one GOP political strategist said when he learned of the shift in rhetoric. 'The White House has made a lot of Republicans walk the plank on this. Now it sounds as if they are sawing off the board.'"

..."Independent political analyst Stuart Rothenberg said that the administration's admission that there was no connection between private accounts and Social Security's long-term solvency could complicate Bush's planned two-day, five-state campaign swing later this week to tout his proposals."
