Reply #10: So to protect the president

[salin]

Frist is threatening action that would facilitate the taking down of his own party in Congress - by assuring lack of resistance to all *unpopular* things per bushco. Seems to me that in the past two weeks Frist must have abandoned his own hopes of winning the presidency - as he is strong arming in the interests of the president, on issues that are likely to hurt his own folks (congressional gop) in their reelections... and doing this at a time when the ONE issue that the GOP was perceived by the public to be stronger than dems on has reversed so that the dems are beginning to look stronger on nat'l security than the dems... pure foolhardiness.

Perhaps Rove is promising that he will work for Frist as bushco heir apparant and thus he *Frist* is now willing to help takedown the party in his own pursuit? But it would seem to me that even Rove won't be able to make Frist look good - as the public has turned against Rove's current project. Foolish, foolish Frist.
