Bush has put out a quiet feeler to replace Rumsfeld in recent weeks. He was politely turned down by at least one candidate he personally called. Unknown: is this one of many candidates Bush has sounded out? Is there a Bernacke-style search going on quietly in the background?

7. tell him to call Joe, He'll take the job...

that'll get his butt out of CT. and occupy him for a while so we can continue the work of throwing them all out.

8. Joe? Seems like he's been campaigning for the job.

And he is providing a side show to divert attention from the other senate races. What might he be expecting for a payoff?

9. So will Rummy take the fall & Bush/Cheney come out smelling like roses....

caught in a war that Rummy caused via deceit, poor Bush, now he must stay in Iraq for years and finish what Rummy started?
