Bush brushes off Boehner's warning

From the current Newsweek magazine about White House strategist Karl Rove's really bad numbers:
"Ten days before the elections, House Majority Leader John Boehner visited Bush in the Oval Office with bad news. He told Bush that the party would lose Tom DeLay's old seat in Texas, where Bush was set to campaign. Bush brushed him off, Boehner recalls. 'Get me Karl,' the president told an aide. 'Karl has the numbers.'"

Hi Malia.

You're right...this was a great article.

Another one not to miss was in Saturday, Nov 11th's Washington Post, "Ohio May Hold Key Lessons for 2008," by Peter Slevin.

It's available online, of course.

Some readers may be wondering: do you spend most of your time in DC itself or do you, like the various Congressmen/women, shuttle back and forth between CVG and DCA?

Well, it's like my old Grandpa used to say: " You can shave Rasputin and put him in suit -- but if you ain't got hemophiliac son, he's just another fat guy with a tie.
