here, here!

I sit here wondering how much power Ms. Nan is willing to wield, how much she can call on from her "constituents" in the House and her colleagues in the Senate. As doom-and-gloomy as I can be at times, I remain hopeful, sometimes unwarrantedly but still hopeful.

Could Pelosi find a way to pressure Cheney out? Could Waxman begin investigations that will blackmail Snaggletooth into a "health crisis" that will necessitate his abrupt retirement?

The Senate must approve any replacement, so who would be acceptable to the Dem-controlled upper chamber? Not as a successor to an impeached boy-king -- let him have his "legacy," ugly as it will be -- but as a silent and compliant place-holder until 2009.

The novelist in me is concocting scenarios. . . . .
