Did not see the Couric caress but did see glimpses of a Jeffords puff piece on 60 Minutes last night. When two (2) separate puff pieces get done on a pol in a 24 hour period, one has to ask "Why?" I think 60 Minutes, as a card-carrying member of the DNC, along with a DNC founder - NBC -are doing puff pieces on Jeffords so that he gets another few minutes in the lime light as a make up for the legislative slap that the Dems gave him on his special ed legislation. The media and the other Dems do not want him to bolt back (sadly, the Pubs would probably take him back.)

Bush is going to have to take control of the agenda by publicly and repeatedly calling on the Dems to release the Bush appointees and get to work. The economic stimulus package is best relegated to a slow death as a hostage to Daschle and the Dems. Anything done now is too late and will be governmental-centric. It is better to have its death as yet another victim in the war on terrorism - this one done by the Democrat Taliban.

Perhaps this will induce Zell Miller to switch to the Republicans. However, a warning to Senator Miller: If you do switch, don't expect that look of adoration in Katie Couric's eyes when she interviews you. Better wear a psychic shield to ward off the flying daggers of anger emanating from the eyes of the $100 Million Woman.

To help Jeffords sell his stupid book. And to bash Republicans. A "twofer", if you will.
