Jan. 20, 2001 - George W Bush is sworn in as President of the United States.
2 more years.

Jun 18th, 1993 - Violet Hopkins confides to me, during the slow dance I've been nervously vying for all day on this final day of middle school, that she thinks Toby Green likes her.

This is a painful, thanks-for-reminding-me memories thread, right?

I was at the inauguration, just to see the spectacle, I swear. It was, indeed, quite a show.

It feels like he's been president forever. And I said the same thing back in 2004.

Just saw Hilary doing her folksey, "let's have a conversation" routine, much as I admire the woman I just don't see that working.
You can see Bill's coaching but she's just such a different person....

Did you get one of those nifty Bush/Cheney Mini-Mag-Lites, mrmoonpie?

True enough. Hil's about as much just-plain-folks as Dubya is.

Ha. Of course, you know it was supposed to be Jeb? Even the family didn't think Dubya had it in him.

Now he's ruined the brand for a generation. George P. might have a shot. Heck, Barbara might have a shot.

Atrios and crowd are actually seriously thinking that no Republican can win unless he completely repudiates Bush. I don't know that I'd go that far, but I don't think McCain has the "mo" everybody thought he'd have. Watch the dark elephants.

If the election were held today, that might be true. It's over 22 months away. Public opinion can change a lot in that time.

Jeb is taller, better-looking, better-spoken, and smarter than G-Dub, but the Fredo of the family got to be president. Jeb must hate him with the heat of 1000 suns.
