Can you believe I agree with Newt

It may be one of the most unbelieveable statements I've made in a long time, but "I agree with Newt Gingrich" when he tells the RNC to take down their latest video.

When will the republican party stop the pure witch hunts. We had 8 years of it with the Clintons' for every single thing they did or said. Are we destined for it again for another 4 or 8 years? It's things like this that have destroyed their party. It's become the party that cried wolf. If the RNC ever wants to go after Obama for anything real, no one will believe them. It's a hunt before he ever takes office. I was so hoping this wouldn't happen again.

You'd think that by now, especially after the last election, the Republican brass would realize that the American people have minds of their own. If Obama had done anything illegal with the Governor, the tapes wouldn't have had Gov. Blagojevich slamming Obama... he'd be praising him.

I was sure when Senator McCain slammed the party for trying to tie Obama to Blagojevich, they'd dismiss him as irrelevant to the party and not care what he had to say. But now that Newt has chimed in too, and hopefully others will as well, maybe they'll wake up before it's way too late for their party to get back into the game. OTOH... maybe I should just let them self-destruct.

What you can say on the way out

It's amazing what a president can say on the way out of office, that would have made him loose if he'd said it while running. Apparently, President Bush really doesn't have to worry about the Christian Evangelical base any longer. And boy, they aren't very happy either.
