Evan Bayh said much the same thing. Biden too i believe. Daschle will probably zip the lip from here on in. Unless the democrats of course have decided to go after the 10% extreme anti-war vote with their sites set on being a permanent third party. mike

Well that says it all Lindy.
But you know that.
I have to take my hat off to the strategy
and execution so far.
By "imbedding" the press, the entire world is seeing
what America stands for. The new reality, controlling the press by opening it. Letting the Press spread the word.

What is the message?
fill in blank, above.

There is no opposing position.
We can't speak against the best of us,
the American Military. The US Soldiers,
our brothers, our fathers, our husbands,
our sons, our friends.

Maybe someday it will be obvious that
this was Bush's only choice.

Right now all we can do is stay informed,
support our troops and the President of the United States.

A next step for the Democrats is far, far away.

Bill,

I think it best that folk like Frum take a break from the day-by-day, hour-by-hour, minute-by-minute search for just anything they can find to dump on the Dems with. At least for the immediate duration of this conflict.

It's par for the course, however, for them. Win uses the the Orwellian phrases of "War is Peace" or "Peace is War", forget just which. Applies here. Frum and the Reps observe that before the conflict started, Daschle makes a perfectly appropriate, if however, politically dumb, observation about the Bush administration's diplomatic ineptitude. They complain it's divisive as they pound the ground, hit the news media, past on all the billboards in the country, the most divisive of messages possible.
