4. More against Rice than against Gonzales?
Well, gotta give the peter principle a complete chance to work its magic, I guess.

8. Will even a SINGLE Republican oppose either Rice or Gonzales?
Even one?

Please, someone call C-SPAN when they open the lines.

Call from the "Support the President" number and tell them that you support Bush, but that the Secretary of State is a non-partisan issue that affects every American regardless of party, and that Condie is bad for America-- not just Democrats.

10. No, they don't have the guts...
They are scared of Rove's "mobster-type" retaliation

11. Sen. Dayton was by far the most outspoken. He said "lying", "lies"
several times. He really blasted Bush** and Rice on the lies before and after the war started. He spoke at the beginning of the debate. If you can get a replay it will be worthwhile.

12. Yeah, thanks!
I guess somebody told Dayton to act like he is part of the opposition!

His behavior was a disgrace when the OHIO vote was challenged.

I think that they are starting to listen to people like us.

24. You know what we all need to do?
We need to send them a deluge of emails, flowers, faxes, etc. Make it damned clear that this is the right thing to do. If they're positively reinforced, they'll stick to it.

25. YES. POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT, PEOPLE.
We have to show them that we're not just bitching, that we're watching and we notice and APPRECIATE them when they do good.
