Will Bush II Meet His Father's Fate in 2004?
We hardly ever agree with Dick Morris, but we liked this quote from his commentary today over at NRO (which we found over at Vodkapundit):
"Bush will likely win the war on terror. But he'll win it in 2003. What will he do for 2004? By then, he'll have run out of countries. Bush has no real domestic agenda beyond his tax cuts which are already part of the law and unlikely — especially now — to be repealed. All the other issues, apart from terror, work in the favor of the Democrats. The Wall Street scandals, global warming, environmental pollution, health care for the elderly, and Social Security are all Democratic issues. Bill Clinton's legacy is that he solved the major Republican concerns — crime and welfare."
"Without issues, Bush may not be able to control the dialogue as 2004 approaches. He will run Washington for the next two years as the Democrats lick their wounds. But he may have a tough road in 2004."
Stephen at Vodkapundit thinks Morris is underestimating Bush. We sure hope not.
