He's going to be a huge factor. He needs to rally Republicans for himself, and for the (November) elections.

Republicans are defending 22 governorships, compared to 16 for Democrats, so the GOP will be hard-pressed to keep its overall majority.

Friends in high places, as you might say, are important to voters as well as the politicians, and Akaka can claim having friends in high places ? most Democrats in the U.S. Senate, for example.

This is a homeland security, national security issue and I think Republicans think they own this issue and they don't want to give Democrats an opening.

I think it will go a long way to bringing this chapter to a close. I think there will be a few more days of some questions, but this story is mostly inside the beltway [of concern only to Washington political insiders].

For some conservatives, it was like a cold dish towel across their face, reminding them that, 'wait a second, we thought we were totally supportive of this president, now we know, maybe we have to keep an eye on him.' And, conservative groups have become much more animated and activist and second guessing of the president.

Democrats still have the potential for major gains (even taking the House), but their current prospects are somewhat lower.

The Democrats are giving the president a dose of his own medicine. It taps the same kinds of biases and concerns that Americans have that the Republicans have been tapping.

Maybe he can put this back on the radar screen as a focus of attention for conservative Republicans. But it's a lot harder when your own party controls Congress, and now you're talking about the line-item veto because they can't control themselves or the president can't control them.

Like Rasputin, who refused to die even after he was poisoned, shot three times and beaten with a 2-pound dumbbell, Alabama Gov. Bob Riley (R) is proving to be more resilient than many political observers once assumed.

I think we are going to hear an awful lot about reform, open government, transparent government. And most presidential elections, frankly, turn out to be about change or the status quo. Do you like the direction of the country or do you want to change it? And if you want to change it, how do you want to change it?

It seems to me there's a lot of smoke here, but I don't know how much heat. To the extent that any of these candidates are going to win, they will probably win because they are Democrats in a Democratic wave year, not because all of a sudden voters have embraced them because they are veterans.

It's just a difficult district for (Wilson). There are very few competitive districts. This is a competitive district.

There's a decent chance the Democrats could take the House. The combination of the national mood and the difficulty the president and Republicans are having getting things done makes it no longer a long shot.

There will be some true believers who will rally around him and portray him as a victim. But politicians tend to be a wary bunch.
