I step away from my computer/lair for a few hours yesterday and look at what happens. Bush also admitted that he said that Rummy would be staying when he was pretty sure that that wouldn’t be the case. There had apparently been some discussion before midterms about Rummy leaving and Liebs being Sec of Defense (since Dems getting a majority in the Senate assumes that that outragist stays a Democrat) and then Rell gets to pull in a GOPist in CT. But my response is “Why would Liebs want to be Secretary of Defense? Iraq is still a mess and anyone who takes on the position is going to have a horrible time. Anyway, Robert Gates has already been mentioned (although not confirmed) as a Rummy replacement so there goes that theory.

Anyway, I’m just watching all the post-midterm elections stuff. Kevin is very happy and I am chastising/teasing him about it; as Jon Stewart ”Democrats are feeling something they haven’t felt in a while: hope…um…yeah good luck with that”

But I have to admit – the GOPist base might finally be fractured enough to screw them over. And that would be good.
