The Bad Bet Pubs did it this time, bet the farm on Bush and now wishing
they hadn't. What made the Pub Masters, the Fundies, the Military, the Big Oil, Big Defense, guys go for Bush? Whatever it was, they bought the bet. Went for it. Got suckered in.

Now they watch in horror as he commits one blunder after another.
The Latest, the Administration must have put so much pressure to find the WMD(see "ain't no life no where" on xrays thread: Prison scandle gonna sink Bush.) that they resort to devious means....

Now all that hard work of building the Pub Party over all these past 30 years will go down the tube. They have no one to blame but themselves. The Pubs bet on Shrub knowing this guy had a history of poor odds. What? they were hoping for a miricle? The Pubs have united America to unseat Bush/ It will be a landslide, I feel it.

3. Good. I hope they lose lots and lots of money!
And that the false notions of Republican compassion, fiscal responsibility, and caring for the troops is finally put to rest.

6. Not only Money will they lose but FACE.... much more important.
The Conservative Movement will suffer greatly due to Bushys gut feelings and their non success.
