Bush's team seems to have become totally politically inept in the second term. I expect more of the President's staff. Maybe the distraction over the Valerie Plame leak case- Scooter Libby out the door, Karl Rove under a cloud- has crippled them, but can't they find anyone better than whoever it is that has gotten them into this mess? Karen Hughes and Mary Matalin leaving really hurt them, too, but come on! Are the people left total amateurs or what? All they have to do is read the blogs and news columns and watch the news shows to get a feel for what people are thinking and saying. If they are doing all of that (which I assume they must be), their conduct is totally incompetent.
Add to that the fact that the Republican "revolution" seems to have run out of steam, the Democrats have zero ideas for anything, and public respect for Congress and the Presidency is very low, and we have the makings of an ugly campaign season coming up. >IMO, as usual, Bush handled this like crap.
