You mean Repubs?
yes. even Rush talked about the politics of this today, its bad. and apparently, the administration is going to play hard ball on this, so its going to go on and on. all we need is some revelation about whom might be on the receiving end of some UAE lobbying $$$s, and they will start caling this "Port Gate".
Rove is either totally tone deaf on this, or has been slapped down by other interests.
