i dont see anything interesting in this matter.
i think kerry is dreaming in public, and his dreaming is of no consequence.
nor do i see any particular need for the democrats to outline an anti-bush or anti-republican campaign aimed at 2008 right now.
there is no need: given the fiasco that has been the second bushterm so far, they need only stand by and watch the right self-destruct. presenting a clear alternative vision at this point would help the right by giving them something against which to stabilize their sad situation. why do it? let them implode....
if the partisan balance in congress shifts via the mid-term elections, bush could well find himself impeached for any number of reasons--the domestic spying thing appears the most likely. but this reflects mostly the twitching of the few remaining neurons that conspire to keep any faith in this degenerate political system intact on my part.
fact is that none of us know yet what will happen in the midterms, so none of us has any idea what the 2008 situation will look like....so the prognostications above, while psychologically gratifying no doubt, are not worth the space they take up.
