Republicans Face The Right & Dems on Tuesday
The conservative coup in upstate New York did much more than lay bare the power of conservative activists: It exposed how little control GOP officials hold over this surging and formidable political movement. In the wake of conservatives’ role in forcing liberal Republican Dede Scozzafava out of Tuesday’s special election in New York’s 23rd District, GOP officials are trying to make it seem as if they are helping to stoke the passion — and can harness it to upend President Barack Obama and Democrats.

.Obama and the Perfect Political Storm
Obama and the Perfect Political Storm It's hard to sell change voters don't think they need. By KARL ROVE August was the worst month of Barack Obama's presidency. And he seems to know it—he is now planning to deliver a speech to a joint session of Congress 232 days into his administration in a desperate attempt to save his biggest domestic priority, overhauling health care.After years of trashing polls, Republicans now embrace them
WASHINGTON — Republicans are using ammunition they scorned for years to attack President Barack Obama's proposed health care overhaul: polls. GOP operatives are trumpeting opinion surveys that show Obama's popularity declining and support flagging for his bid to use the federal government to provide medical coverage to uninsured Americans.

Nancy's Nazi Shock: Did She Forget the Bush Years? By John Leo Nancy Pelosi is shocked by the presence of some swastikas at protests against Obamacare. Who ever heard of such a thing?Why 'Obama-care' is failing
The president and his supporters are blaming the wrong people for his healthcare woes -- they should look in the mirror. By Jonah Goldberg (L.A. Times) To listen to the White House and its supporters, in and out of the media, you would think that opposition to "Obama-care" is the hobgoblin of a few small minds on the right.Using Up His Political Capital
Obama's Push for Health Care Reform May Use Up His Political Capital
The shift in public tone toward President Obama and his agenda raises fresh questions about the political capital he is expending to push through his top domestic priority, especially after he scored a hard-fought victory to get his $787 billion stimulus package passed.
Barack Obama promised on the campaign trail to change Washington if elected president, and he rode a wave of support based partly on that pledge all the way to the White House.
But change doesn't come cheap, and securing health care reform may wind up costing him much of that support -- known in Washington as political capital.

I just feel like it's a interesting take on George W and how he got to where he is, by looking at his family history/background.
