But, see, that's the question, isn't it? WHO will call out the old Rove attack machine? Who's gonna be the neocon candidate?

Dick "Lord of Darkness" Cheyney. I know that everyone is about to go on me about how old he is and how they dont expect him to live to 2008... but then again, I've seen some crazy stuff these past 6 or so years, so I think it's in the realm of possibility.
Or Condi. Nothing like calling your opposition woman-hating racists, eh?

Feingold edges toward announcing his candicacy, saying it's time for a president from Wisconsin, which is obviously meant to fire up Wisconsin voters.

Sen. Hillary Clinton left one thing out this week when she tried to explain her views on Iraq - namely that she used to agree almost completely with President Bush, even after the war took a nosedive.
On Tuesday, Clinton wrote in a 1,600-word letter to supporters that her 2002 vote for war in Iraq was based on "evidence presented by the [Bush] administration."
"The 'evidence' of weapons of mass destruction and links to Al Qaeda turned out to be false," Clinton wrote.
But just months after the bombs started falling, Clinton (D-N.Y.) called a Daily News reporter to insist she had no second thoughts about her vote for war.
The war was worth it just to remove Saddam Hussein from power, she said....
"If the tide shifts, she's on the wrong side of the sea wall," said Baruch College political scientist Doug Muzzio.
That's "good" enough for me. I'd vote for her if she were the Democratic nominee, but unenthusiastically.
