The thing is that now President Bush doesn't have to worry about running for president again. He's at his limit and this term he can do as he pleases without worry about much more than impeachment. Historically this is when the President does their most independant thinking and acting.

I'm more worried now - The election was quite decisive unlike 2000 so accepting that is alright with me. The fact is people don't want senators as presidents they want governors or better. Men with executive experience. The democratic party is in a world of hurt and needs to evolve into something with stronger leadership and it's member base needs to grow up a bit in my opinion.
