President Bush's poll numbers are already pretty bad, and there has been some concern among people about the long vacation while there is a perception that things aren't going so well. I hate to say it, but some of the role a leader plays after a disaster is public relations.

Politicians see this as a potentially defining event and they are worried how they are going to be seen. Politicians realize that public opinion could turn on this, just the way it turned on 9/11.

the best chance to raise doubts or concerns about Roberts' record, his reasoning, his views.

Everybody seems to admit he is conservative. He is also bright. He has no obvious ethical problems. That probably means the Democrats are going to have to dig up a good deal of controversy if they are going to challenge this nomination seriously.

Iraq is now a cloud over everything. It's the 800-pound gorilla in the room.

This turns the flame up under the kettle and keeps the water boiling. It means he's going to continue to be peppered with questions about this stock sale, and no politician wants to be questioned about things like that.

Republicans have to be relieved. Given all the bad news this White House has faced, at least the president's hemorrhaging has stopped.

If Gore were up 10 points, this wouldn't happen. There would be a lot of golf to be played otherwise.

He has found his voice on Iraq and terrorism. The president has been more aggressive in defending American policy in Iraq and trying to remind Americans there is still a threat out there. In a strange way this domestic surveillance controversy also allows him to return to the terrorism-national security message.

We will be drawing down some troops. If the president wants to try to turn that into the beginning of a success, he actually, I think, has some opportunity.

Democrats are going to try to turn this into a partisan issue. The Republicans say no, that there are some Republicans involved but there are Democrats involved, and so this is really going to boil down to a nuts and bolts political argument.

This year still looks very much like a Democratic year, and the only question is how big a year it will be for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and the Democratic Congressional Committee.
