The Arnold Model - GOP of the Future?

Who's not sorry now about the campaign he waged?

Repuublican CA Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. They're calling it the "Arnold Model". Is this the wave of the future of the GOP?

RT: Governor dodged a wave -- Leaving for a Mexican trade trip Wednesday, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Tuesday's election was a mandate for Republicans and Democrats to continue working together to address issues ranging from the health care to prison construction. The Republican governor said he was "over the moon" with happiness about his 17-point victory over Democrat Phil Angelides and the success of the bond measures he backed.

Should Speaker Hastert Resign?

Get a clue.

A reader heard Denny Hastert on the Hannity radio show today saying he "didn't really understand this IM technology, anyway." Jeez. And these guys are in charge. This is right up there with "the Internet is a series of tubes...".

Supposedly, he's fighting for his job. Not so fast. Remember, a good "regime change" invasion-wag-the-dog bombing of Iran wipes all this off the news. And Woodward too.

Karl Rove plays to win. His only job right now is to win the midterms. He is not going to let this wimp, Mark Foley, or Hastert ruin that. Plus, the neo conartists are itching to implement the "New American way of war" (ala Max Boot's thesis).
