I listened to both the Blair speech (GW owes Blair a huge debt of gratitude) and Bush's remarks, and the brief question and answer session that took place today.
I found Bush to be tongue-tied, hesitant, and generally "ill-at-ease" while Tony Blair was simply brilliant and oh-so-in-command of the english language.
I'd vote for Blair. If the prime minister somehow loses his position in England, and (I'm being half-serious here) miraculously became a citizen of the USA, he'd get elected on any ballot he put his name.

the post office, even the sleaze.
