Bush Proves Toxic for Republicans
It looks like President Bush officially begins his lame duck status this morning.
The New York Times:
...everyone from political consultants to the leaders of countries in the remote corners of Asia and Africa are going to assume the same thing from the results of yesterday's balloting: Mr. Bush's political capital has turned into a deficit.....
The issue right now is a national fear that the White House has no plan, and no capacity to carry one out even if it existed.
Associated Press: |
Iraq, Katrina, CIA leak, Harriet Miers. Things couldn't possibly get any worse for President Bush. Wait, they just did.
Bush put his wispy political prestige on the line in the Virginia governor's race and lost Tuesday when the candidate he embraced in a last-minute campaign stop was soundly defeated. While there are many reasons for Jerry Kilgore's defeat, chief among them his poor campaign, giddy Democrats said the Virginia race as well as a Democratic victory in New Jersey prove that Bush is a political toxin for Republicans.
