Possible scenario for the fall elections:

In an effort to ensure victory, Bush cans a couple of key players: Rumsfeld, Richard Myers, maybe Colin Powell (who will likely leave after the first term anyway).

Once the troublesome few whose “mistakes” led to the Iraqi quagmire are gone, Bush can claim it’s evidence of his leadership and thus advance his profile as the “leader” needed for the struggle ahead.

He might even — get this — do it by admitting that “mistakes have been made,” and use the firing(s) to show his willingness to correct them — without scrapping much of the actual framework of the near-Fascist cabal around him.

I bet that would gain him a few percentage points.

Get Cheney to step down for “health reasons”, put Giuliani in his place, and Iraq and roll is here to stay.

    i think everyone who can, should

    when you get kids who are paying for school themselves etc., a week of class is a big deal and can result in all kinds of losses. I think you’re right and I think we should go farther than we are right now. However, we need to be kind to those who’s priorities cannot be fucking the system, as much as they would like.
    does that make sense?

    Re: Rummy’s going down.

    sometimes, i have thoughts like, “fuck voting!” – not that we shouldn’t vote – but fuck voting like this: why stop there? How about city-wide youth strikes. whole weeks where high school and college students and workers refuse to go to class or work, take to the streets in cities across the US. Lefty families can bring the kids out for the mass street party. I mean, if all we do is vote, we’ve lost already.

    Let us not forget that media polls are often deceiving and, depending on the source of the poll, often times sway to the right no matter what the sentiment of most Americans actually seems to be.

    Re: Rummy’s going down.

    That is a depressing thought.
    I like to cling to my hope that there is a chance that enough people would rather see a monkey in a cute business suit in the White House than four more years of this administration. That’s not to say that I turn a deaf ear and a blind eye to hard core reality, but out of about 30 people I might talk to on any given day only about 1 or 2 would like to see Bush reelected…of course most the people I speak to are liberal artsy types. So, then I look at the trends in the polls. They fluctuate, but more often than not it seems Bush is down in the polls more than he’s up. Of course over the past week he has been showing some signs of elevation. Recently the indication is that the country is split down the middle according to the polls.

    Re: Rummy’s going down.

    Hmm. Not quite. In my opinion, it’s Cheney & Rove vs. themselves.

    Y’see, here’s the thing. I think that they blink too often for their control to be absolute. I don’t think they want people (particularly politically active lefties like us) to think they can be beat. They want us to drown in our own conspiracy theories, terrified of their godlike status.

    But, like I said, they’ve blinked. They’re arrogant, but they’re far too fearful of being dragged into the light. They’re losing on small Senate battles they should be winning easily, and, of course, this current mess will have heads rolling before it’s over.

    I don’t think the emperor is wearing clothes. I think that’s the secret they don’t want people to know.

    I smell blood in the air.

    and everyone I know is voting. No exceptions. There’s no argument about ‘our’ lack of particpation in the past (and we do live in a liberal bubble – esp. VT, esp.

    Re: Rummy’s going down.

    Basically the gist I am getting here is that you see some extreme changes needed for Bush to have a chance at another term. Interesting.
    I have been so focused on the disturbing thought of how even more horrific it would be if something were to happen to Bush and Cheyney were to step up to the presidency that it never even entered my mind that Bush may need to give him his walking papers to win this election.
    There is one flaw in this theory that I hesitate to point out…but here it goes…wouldn’t placing Guiliani as the VP put Bush in the difficult position of having a VP that is vastly more popular? That could be a dangerous place for him to be in.

    I doubt that Powell would be axed. I agree that it would cause Bush more harm than good to axe him. However, I also agree that Powell, if he’s half as smart as he is reputed to be, will cut his losses and distance himself from this administration.

    Nothing would make me happier than to not to have to look at Rumsfeld’s
    frightening face or hear his annoying voice anymore while trying to enjoy the TV news, or NPR…but if it means 4 more years of Bush I’d rather suffer with my disdain.

    Let’s hope that Bush
    a.) is NOT reading your live journal for reelection tips (yes I am joking)
    b.) is really as stupid as he appears to be (no I am not joking)
    c.) even if he is smarter than he appears that the American people are even smarter.

    Re: Rummy’s going down.

    I agree Rummy’s going down–knew it the moment Bush expressed confidence in him. That’s always a Bush kiss of death–And that’s the interesting part.

    Y’see, this whole administration is the product of the Cheney/Rumsfeld/Rove triumverate, a machine that goes all the way back to Nixon’s dirty tricks machine. The whole point was to get them in charge. Bush is a stooge, a well-connected talking head. Ashcroft is a bone to the Christian right. Powell buys them credibility with the moderates.

    Which, of course, points toward a couple cracks–they’re control isn’t absolute. They’re too fearful. Too secretive. They know they can be brought down. Also, they’re too invested in the appearance of control. Saying Cheney would part with that because he’d still really be in control anyway is reasoanble, but these aren’t reasonable people.

    The cracks are showing. They’re going to fall apart.

    And much like Karen Hughes did, I don’t think it’s an issue for Cheney to step down and maintain influence. They’ll do it if it needs doing. These guys are playing for all the marbles.

    As for popularity — hah. Bush is still personally popular, and he’s what these guys want to preserve — their essentially useless stalking horse.

    1.) He won’t sack Powell. Even after all of this, Powell is still the most consistantly popular member of this administration. He’ll let Powell leave on his own accord, but he won’t risk a public confrontation.

    2.) Rumsfeld and Cheney are too arrogant to step down willingly, and while Rummy might get axed, Cheney won’t relinquish power lightly. He is the mastermind behind this administration, after all.

    3.) Giuliani would, from Bush’s point of view, be a good candidate, and he’s much more moderate than Cheney–which would make him very much of a traditional, useless VP. But again, I don’t see Cheney out, and Bush can’t axe some of these people without repercussions. And, judging fromt he outline of what we don’t know, the repercussions could be quite serious. The White House and the Pentagon are already leaking like things that leak.

    1.) He won’t sack Powell. Even after all of this, Powell is still the most consistantly popular member of this administration. He’ll let Powell leave on his own accord, but he won’t risk a public confrontation.

    2.) Rumsfeld and Cheney are too arrogant to step down willingly, and while Rummy might get axed, Cheney won’t relinquish power lightly. He is the mastermind behind this administration, after all.

    3.) Giuliani would, from Bush’s point of view, be a good candidate, and he’s much more moderate than Cheney–which would make him very much of a traditional, useless VP. But again, I don’t see Cheney out, and Bush can’t axe some of these people without repercussions. And, judging fromt he outline of what we don’t know, the repercussions could be quite serious. The White House and the Pentagon are already leaking like things that leak.

    Oh Jesus

    This sounds so probable and with Giuliani as VP he would *more than likely* be unstoppable.

    Please. This cannot happen. I will have to seek asylum in another country. I’m terrified of what he would do in a second term where he doesn’t have to worry about being reelected.
