Who Let the Dogs In?
“HOLY COW. Wow. And Lord help us.
I don’t know who wrote the script for this election, but it was so far over the top that the perp should be chucked out of the screenwriters’ guild.
Naturally, we can think of reasons to be chipper about the outcome. George W. Bush is not a mean man, and he is not a nincompoop. This may strike you as faint praise, but media expectations about Bush have been so low that it sometimes seems necessary to report, “Look, he can jump over a matchbox.”
Besides, he has t...hat same daffy inability to get a grip on the English language that his father has, thus providing glorious material for political humorists.
I happen to think that Bush is quite good at the political end of politics—at holding together a disparate coalition, at reaching out to unlikely suspects, and at making himself generally liked. There is much talk of a national-unity kind of government, rather like the one that Ehud Barak is trying to create in Israel. (Put a Democrat or two in the cabinet.) The trouble is, when you win a close race, you owe all the members of your coalition big-time.MoreLess
