And speaking of President Bush's poll numbers

An AP-Ipsos survey found that nearly 70 percent of Americans believe the nation is heading in the wrong direction. And 49 percent believe Democrats should run Congress compared to 33 percent who believe Republicans should run it. That means the Republican supporters are down to only those that wouldn't abandon the party even if their president was caught lying about something as important as national security.

And even some of them are starting to question. Republican Senator Arlen Spector is now saying we need to get to the bottom CIA leak case and he thinks that means President Bush needs to answer some questions.

That has GOP pollster Tony Fabrizio saying "The good news is Democrats don't have much of a plan. The bad news is they may not need one."

Indeed, former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich has said the Democrats can run on a simple slogan: Had enough?

And for those lamenting that the Democrats have no plan, keep in mind that the Republicans did not release the Contract With American until six weeks before the 1994 elections.
