" IMO the bit on SS was a set up for the push Bush (and Feldstein) will make on some version of SS reform and privatization IF Bush gets reelected."
timing makes no sense here: it is costing BUsh votes that comment: either it is his bidding adieu or what i am not sure, but it was a calculated bad political call. perhaps of course, it was simply the strategy of suggesting the unthinkable so that Bush can come back with the only slightly less unthinkable which will then seem good in comparison: gather that is what you are suggesting?
