...does he. There's no establishment like the Republican Establishment. These guys don't complain; they don't wobble; they won't entertain the notion that Bush is slighter than many others in their exclusive club, like Wisconsin's Tommy Thompson, who considered running but didn't when he concluded that "Bush was more famous, had more money and was better looking."

They also serially entertain the young widow Sue Lee (Jewel, the singer). They are idiot savants at making war--without flair or even instinct but with an awful proficiency.
