btw, i do believe the election results will provide Bush with his best possible opportunity to salvage his tattered legacy.
had the GOP eked out a victory, the Prez would have resolutely stayed the course - all the way to the bottom of the political abyss.
but if the Prez can swallow his pride and work with the Dems, any kind of strategy shift in Iraq and elsewhere will only help improve his standing as well. Reagan and Clinton both had to work with majority opposition in their final years and they both looked good doing it.
it's a character test of sorts for him - let's see if he is up for it.
