Mid-Term Know-How The Washington Times relates a recent conversation between the president and a friend:
At a fund-raiser two months before the midterm elections, President Bush was reminded by an acquaintance of the propensity of Republican leaders to mess up just when things appeared to be going their way.
"I won't mess this up," the president whispered in reply, "because I know exactly what I'm doing."
I'm sure Gephardt, Daschle, Clinton, Mondale, Carnahan, Cleland and McAuliffe privately agree.
