A gambler? What examples did you have in mind? Running around personally campaigning in the midterm elections, which would have looked bad for him if the Republicans had lost seats, as they were expected to do. Going for a $600 million tax cut. Renominating Charles Pickering. A more cautious President would not have done these things. And the biggie - pre-emption - deciding that waiting around until Iraq developed its next crisis or we got hit again was not the way to go.
