lame

it looks like we in the uk are stuck with a lame duck prime minister. ever since tony said he wasn't going to stand for a 4th term he is seen as increasingly isolated. even though it might mean that ministers will not stand in his way while he forces through another education reform that may do more damage than good. but it's ok they fought long and hard against a smoking ban. go figure.

in the states it looks more and more likely that george is not going to be able to go for a legacy. after saying they would bring dignity back to the white house the bush administration found itself confronted with trails to key members of it's administration. this resulted in the indictment of scooter libby (great name even if he is a neo-con). so it looks like bush, cheney and rove are going to be spending some time trying to re-establish the presidency.

condi has got to be hoping that they do it or else it really does screw up her chances in 2008.
hilary vs condi. now i would pay to see that.
