Bush has mastered D.C. politics Halfway into first term, he's seen as 'far better than his father'

Washington -- George W. Bush has not only embraced the art of politics, he has become a master.

Such a statement would have sounded ludicrous in early 2001, when Bush had just six years of public service under his belt, and, by virtue of a few hundred contested Florida ballots, succeeded a man many regard as among the sharpest political minds of the 20th century.

Have the Libs finally realized that they've been slugging it out with a tarbaby?

(Or, more to the point, will their pride allow them to see that?!?!)

[isthisnickcool]

What!!?? Ann Richards and all those other people were wrong?

[Redcloak]

Nah... Can't be! The Shrub couldn't possibly be that bright.

I might be going out on a limb here but I think the liberal media is realizing what Democrat loosers are going to be running in 2004. Don't be surprised if Bush is endorsed by a few liberal papers!

Lesson to the Left:

Never mis-underestmate George W. Bush.

You mean they haven't figured out they're wrestling with a greased pig and the pig likes it?

succeeded a man many regard as among the sharpest political minds of the 20th century.

Only by those whose minds have been irreversibly damaged by the use of controlled substances.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Sharp mind for graft, that's for sure.

Wow. Front page of the San Francisco Chronicle!

Rubbing the sleep from my eyes, surely I'm dreaming!

¡Viva Bush/Cheney!

You're not dreaming and stop calling me Shirley.
