That guy was one tough hombre. He said some interesting stuff in interviews recently - A lot of it minimizes the effect of Iraq on how we vote and I kind of agree with him because it seems closer to what I saw people near me say. - He thinks the midterm defeats were caused mostly by the well publicized scandals. -He's telling Repblicans running in 08 to distance themselves from the culture of corruption in DC. - Then he was talking about the rise of spirituality in America and how that's a force that's here to stay. None of this means anything really for Reps - they're still toast next year. They'll be blamed for scandals and those dumb fundamentalists vote Rep anyway - even when they din't get anything these last 8 years Rich Reps and Dems and the corps. got all the money.
I guess he thinks that this will be enough to keep the subpeonas from being served, probably a wise move on his part. Love him or hate him, I would never call the man stupid. Scary maybe, but not stupid. c
