Bush and team are calculating that he can regain the Senate, and that the near-term obstruction of his nominees helps enrage the GOP base. If we do not succeed in recapturing the Senate, then I suspect you'll be hearing a lot more about the treatment of the Bush judicial nominees. It's called the bully pulpit that the president occupies.

Well, I don't believe he'll actually use the office as a bully pulpit until the day after he wins his second term and not until then.Heck,how can he? Because I tired of the Bias of All TV News,(I really shouldn't have to absorb Bias when my day is over ) I just read online each day.
