David Brooks On The NewsHour Last Night

Noted: If you aren't watching the NewsHour's 15 minute Political Wrap every Friday well, you ain't living.

We absolutely agree.

Or, to put it another way (as we wrote back in July of '07) - In 2008, George W. Bush trumps Teddy Kennedy. And not in a good way for Republicans.
