Then you absolutely missed yesterday's newscycle!

In the face of electoral maps, head-to-head polling, Electoral College hand-wringing, and arm-chair election handicapping, I offer 4 simple letters:

Yes, another chess euphamism....

But here's why Bush has completely put himself into a box: BushCo's main tactic right now is to scare people into accepting delayed elections. However, this tactic is completely contradicted by his one main talking point, namely, "but we are safer!"

I mean, an idiot can see the completely flawed logic here.

I don't see how Bush gets himself out of this strategic bind.

I say it here, it shows up there....

Get ready for a tsunami of photos/video of Saddam getting charged in front of the "new" Iraqi "government" tomorrow.

Look for a coordination with the ever popular "Saddam was a (fill in the blank - I'm sure we'll hear "madman", "threat", "tyrant")__ " meme as a justification for Georgie's Wild Iraq Ride.

BTW, since I'm always very interested in media matters as they pertain to politics, I predict that Kerry will announce the Veep on either Tuesday, July 6th, or the following Monday, July 12th.

Bush Losing the Thread?

Just heard the excerpt from the Irish TV interview with Shrub on O'Franken.

You have to listen to it to get the full effect - just reading the transcript doesn't convey the frustration (perhaps desperation?) in his voice as he sputters out the same old tired talking points. "He was a threat... the United Nations said serious consequences..." etc., etc.

You wonder if he was surprised that the reporter would dare engage in a real debate.

Two things strike me here:

Still espousing the same tired old arguments re: Iraq, even though polling shows the war becoming more and more unpopular. "Well, if I just say it more often, maybe more people will believe it."
In light of Cheney's recent F-bomb, and this awkward Chimp attempt at a European PR appearance, I think it's safe to say that their cage is rattled a little bit. They're frustrated. Tempers are short.

And that's when mistakes happen.

Now, if the SCLM jumps on for the ride, this is huge. This is "the president knew".

I'll tell you one thing: I'll bet Cheney would like to have back that decision to cut Powell out of The Circle...

Not to mention the rammifications of having the State Dept. engaged in a thinly veiled war with the Pentagon.... during wartime.... my head is reeling, this is so crazy.
