Tony is on vacation, and I expect the next we'll see him is after Labor Day.

True. Remember, the campaign for '06 does not really begin until Labor Day. I'm expecting that the Rove-designed Republican machine will kick in. I'm thinking the RATS won't know what hit them when November gets here.

So Rove is getting the weather machine ready and Ernesto is just a warm up.
