i-bill: Why did you change your name from e-bill? Did you get a nasty warning letter from some domain-name lawyer? The issue is whether or not the Republicans are reaching out to the moderate wing of the party (they're not), not whether Bush stacked his Cabinet with "moderates." As everyone should know by now, the real power in Washington, D.C., is centered in the Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld right-wing, big-oil, big-business, big-money cabal. Rice, Powell, Mrs. Mitch McConnell et al. serve as icons, and, as Christie "Slim" Whitman discovered, no Cabinet member is to announce anything of major importance without first clearing such through the Oval Office "power structure." D-Dubya-I is big on photo-op appearances, i.e., attending services at the all-black church during his first week in office ... but that tactic only works for so long. Don't get me wrong. GWB is a slick politician ... real slick ... maybe as good as Clinton. But as I speculated months ago, his first task was to solidify the various segments of his Republican power base ... and he failed to do this.
