Since his wife co-authored this article, maybe she had something to do with this turn-around...

TITLE : Dick Morris Says GOP Sunk in '06, Hillary Wins in '08
Hmmm. I dunno. While DM sometimes has some interesting and insightful comments, I have noticed that he waffles just enough to cover his bases...
I just hope Morris does not say the GOP will win in 2006, then I know we are doomed.
Ha - beat me to it! :-)
Dick Morris will do whatever gets Dick Morris more television time.
Why does any one give this man any credibility? Hannity has him on, which is not surprising, but Medved had him on to. He gives "hindsight prognostications" never any forward looking analysis.
Excess ingestion of toe-jamb must have that effect on your mind.
Anyone who has paid attention to Morris over the years knows his predictions change a lot on the road to election day. That's his gimmick. :-)
Every time I hear the media tell me that I am not going to vote, I get a little more eager to vote. I am disgusted by the Republican spending, but I will be damned if I will follow orders from the liberal media. Them saying it doesn't make it true.
Look at it this way: Dick Morris is an opinion columnist, and his only stock in trade is his alleged brilliance at knowing how elections will go.
The only way he can make a buck in a limited niche like that is to ride the waves as they come, and pretend that he knew all along what the next 12 waves will be like.
At best, Morris has only a marginally better idea of the next wave than you or I do. Where he makes his money is in convincing enough folks that he's not making up everything beyond that.
Good analysis. That raises the question, though - does he believe his own BS?
Let's say the Dems win one or both houses. How would this affect SCOTUS choices if Bush gets one more selection? Couldn't he still get a conservative judge thru the senate even with a Dem majority? If Pelosi and crew proceed with impeachment, how would that affect the 2008 GOP choice?
Could there be a backlash against the Dems or make it easier for Hillary?
>>>( The Man Just Can't Make Up His Mind )
No, he's just practicing gluteus protectus - now, no mater what the result, he can say, "See, I told you so..."
Morris is only interested in maintaining his viability of his career. Period. He just wants enough credibility to keep working.
Title should read,
Dick Morris: Professional Idiot.
"Couldn't he still get a conservative judge thru the senate even with a Dem majority? "
You're joking, of course, right?
Exactly. That way he can claim (as he always does) that he correctly predicted the election. I'll never understand why he gets so much attention.
